Compact, Comfortable, and Inspired by the Classical Guitar Tradition
The Seagull Entourage Folk is a supremely comfortable 6-string, boasting a remarkably balanced response given its slim Folk-style body. Fingerpickers and strummers alike will savor the rich harmonic depth provided by this guitar’s solid cedar top — a premium-level spec often favored on nylon-string guitars for its subtle and incredibly touch-sensitive tone. Wild cherry back and sides meet the warmth of the top with a bell-like articulation, while the neck sports a sturdy “C” profile silver leaf maple construction with a sleek rosewood fingerboard. Finally, this guitar’s slightly scaled-down Folk body and short 24.84-inch scale length allow you to strum away for hours without fatigue while also supplying a beautifully balanced response across all six strings. From couch strumming to laying down the foundation of your next track, the Entourage Folk does it all in classic Canadian-made Seagull style.
Sustainable sound and sourcing
Luthiers at Seagull Guitars select all their woods to reduce environmental impact without compromising quality. Often found on classical guitars for its touch-sensitivity, a solid cedar top starts the Seagull Entourage Folk off with a harmonically rich response perfect for fingerpicking or strummed accompaniment for vocals. Wild cherry comprises the back and sides, complementing the cedar’s warmth with excellent reflection and a rich, mid-range-anchored profile that is balanced, articulate, and sustaining. You’ll find the silver leaf maple neck imparts your sound with a shimmering clarity, boasting exceptional note separation with a balanced, crystalline projection through every register. The warmth of the rosewood fingerboard permeates every layer of your sound, enriching it with a glassy yet articulate veneer.
Folk-sized body offers ample sonic flexibility
Sporting a concert-size body inspired by the classical guitar, Seagull’s Folk body style provides superb sonic versatility and a comfortable feel. Players generally accustomed to dreadnoughts will be sure to appreciate the Folk style’s slightly smaller, more rounded body, but don’t be fooled by this guitar’s size — the Entourage Folk is a sonic Swiss Army knife that covers boisterous strumming, intimate fingerpicking, and fierce flatpicking without breaking a sweat. Furthermore, Folk-sized guitars offer some of the best string-to-string balance in the realm of acoustic guitars, ensuring that your highs, mids, and lows all sing together in perfect harmony.
Comfortable at any volume
Silver leaf maple delivers more than just great tones. Its natural resilience makes it not only tonally and structurally stable, but also a wonderful choice for musicians on the road, given its high resistance to warping and twisting. Gorgeous rosewood is used for the fingerboard, boasting 21 frets across a 16-inch radius, all through a 24.84-inch scale. You'll also experience consistent, rich sound, thanks to the 1.72-inch Graph Tech TUSQ nut.
