Designed for the Modern Fingerstylist
Few guitars can meet the needs of Italian acoustic guitar virtuoso Peppino D’Agostino. That's precisely why he teamed with Seagull to create the Seagull Artist Peppino Signature CW, an acoustic that’s tailor-made for modern fingerstyle playing. The Artist Peppino Signature CW features the all-time classic combination of a dreadnought body style with a spruce top and mahogany back and sides. This pairing delivers both mighty low-end power and a crisp treble response, with incredible string individual string articulation. If you prefer a wider string spacing, the Peppino boasts a 1.9-inch nut width that makes fingerpicking a breeze. A deep cutaway offers easy upper-fret access, making this guitar a superb option for players looking to pull off some Peppino-style acoustic theatrics of their own. Add in the stage-ready LR Baggs Anthem SL electronics, and the Artist Peppino Signature CW is a formidable instrument that's loaded with high-end features to excel in the complex melodic fingerstyle playing of its namesake.
Classic-style wide nut width
For fingerstyle guitarists, a wide nut width can be a make-or-break feature when shopping for an acoustic guitar. Tight string spacing can result in your fingers bumping into an adjacent string, making it difficult to pull off a clean note. Many fingerstyle players at Sweetwater prefer a minimum of 1-3/4-inches, but the Seagull Artist Peppino Signature CW is a fingerpicker’s dream, with an almost-classical guitar width (traditionally 2-inches) of 1.9-inches. Whether you’re looking to play some old-school travis picking or dive into the world of modern melodic fingerstyle, this guitar’s wide spacing will have you playing your best.
LR Baggs Anthem electronics
The LR Baggs Anthem SL pickup in the Artist Peppino Signature CW is a standout among acoustic pickups, winning awards and player approval all over the world. The Anthem features LR Baggs' patented TRU•MIC technology which combines a proprietary condenser mic with their renowned Element pickup. The result is a warm, natural acoustic tone that sounds so pure you would swear it was miked.
