M6 LTD: A Slim, Limited-run Stunner from Seagull Guitars!

The M6 LTD acoustic-electric guitar from Seagull Guitars combines compelling limited-run looks with solid tonewoods and a slim Concert Hall body shape. This Concert Hall body shape puts player comfort first but compromises nothing in terms of volume and projection. A solid cedar top and solid mahogany back and sides join together to issue warm bass, rich midrange, and articulate treble, each balanced to perfection by Adirondack spruce X-bracing bracing inside the sound chamber. The M6 LTD’s neck is carved from silver leaf maple topped with an accommodating “D-shape” and a rosewood fingerboard. The M6 LTD puts a fresh feel on favorite Seagull features, but this guitar’s looks impressed Sweetwater players most of all. From top to bottom, Seagull Guitars checked every box to ensure the M6 LTD looks as good as it sounds. And with Fishman Sonicore electronics onboard, the M6 LTD is ready for the stage where these premium tonewoods and bespoke looks sing together in lockstep unison.

Real-deal tonewoods carved for comfort

With a narrow waist and shallow vintage-inspired dimensions, the M6 LTD’s Concert Hall body marks a departure from typical Seagull Guitars, one that many players are sure to appreciate! The tapered waist grants extra freedom to pick, strum, and stylize notes as desired, while featured tonewoods ensure plenty of volume on tap. The solid cedar top pulses with exceptional tone, projection, and dynamic response, hallmarks that have been a core ingredient of the signature Seagull sound for decades. Solid mahogany back and sides fuel flavorful resonance that stays balanced whether you’re barely grazing the strings or digging in hard. Internal X-bracing carved from Adirondack spruce officiates mahogany and cedar into full-blown tone matrimony characterized by warm bass, assertive midrange, and full-bodied treble. The icing on the proverbial cake is a silver leaf maple neck topped with a rosewood fingerboard; this neck boasts a meaty, vintage-inspired “D-shape” profile that facilitates basics like cowboy chords gracefully while delivering exceptional upper-fret access that progressive players are bound to find useful.

Limited looks crafted with care

Seagull’s acoustic guitars often showcase natural tonewood beauty; with the M6 LTD, Seagull builders set their eyes on exploring bold colors that harken back to the golden-age parlor guitars that drip with mail-order aesthetics. The M6 LTD’s captivating finish is perfectly complemented by creamy gold and off-white hardware, a tortoiseshell headstock and pickguard, a rosewood bridge, and a high-contrast rosette. These appointments add up to collectible limited-run looks and demonstrate that Seagull’s visual instincts are just as strong as their knack for building outstanding acoustic guitars.

Fishman Sonitone: excellence, amplified

The M6 LTD’s looks beg to strut their stuff beneath stage lights. Artists who gig and record are in luck! A discrete Fishman Sonitone system lets the M6 LTD quickly connect to acoustic amplifiers, PAs, interfaces, and more, all with amplified acoustic quality that’s made Fishman such a leading name in the field. The Sonitone system delivers dynamic amplification by pairing an under-saddle pickup with a soundhole-mounted preamp. The Sonitone’s master volume and tone controls are easy to reach for fast tweaks onstage, but more importantly, the system’s discrete size preserves this guitar’s limited-run looks. It’s the best of both worlds!

Why Buy Your Guitar from Sweetwater?

See how Sweetwater goes to great lengths to give you the very best online guitar buying experience. From our online Guitar Gallery that allows you to see and select the exact instrument you want to our 55-point Inspection process and our in-house guitar techs, we take the guesswork out of buying your next guitar online.

What is Demo Gear?

At Sweetwater, we're so picky that what we call a "demo" is actually better than what most music retailers sell as "new" gear! Our gear hasn't endured hundreds of people a week plunking away at all the keyboards, fumbling through Stairway to Heaven on every guitar or playing with every fader and knob on a mixer or control surface.

What demo means to us is that we've had it out of the box, or maybe it was in a customer's hands for a few days and isn't "factory fresh" as a result. Every demo item we sell has Sweetwater's 2-year Total Confidence Coverage™ warranty, and has been tested and verified up to "new" specs by our factory-authorized technicians to make sure it's in perfect working order before we ship it to you.

When you buy a Demo item at Sweetwater, you get:
  • 2-year Total Confidence Coverage Warranty™!
  • Products inspected and tested by our factory-authorized techs, guaranteed to function like new (or better)!
  • FREE shipping on most items
  • Equipment that will MEET or EXCEED your expectations!

Seagull M6, quickly becoming my favorite guitar

I purchased this guitar without having a chance to play it first so I really wasn't sure what to expect. I've owned several Seagulls before so my expectations were high and this guitar actually exceeded my expectations. It looks and sounds great and it is very player friendly. I highly recommend this guitar to anybody who is looking for a new acoustic guitar.
Rated 5/5

Great Seagull for the price!

I have played Seagull guitars most of my life. This M6 is outstanding! The action is nice and low easy to play, easy on the fingers. I love the ruby red finish. Even though I have Taylors, I go back to this guitar most of the time. I love the robust sound. You can't go wrong with this Seagull and for the price!! I am actually thinking of buying another one for work.

Is it solid back and sides?

It sounds like a great value if it is, but I have read conflicting info online. I'm very interested. I love the Seagull product line. The red looks great.
