You also get a rock-solid mahogany neck and an easy-playing fingerboard. And when it comes time to hit the stage, a Barcus-Berry LX-4 preamp ensures top-quality plugged-in tone. If you're looking for an alternative to the typical spruce-topped acoustic guitar, the Deep Forest Ebony FE is guaranteed to please.
