An ergonomic design that doesn’t sacrifice tone
Forget about getting lost in the mix — the G12FCE’s laminate flame okoume top, back, and sides deliver projection and resonance that can fill any unplugged space. And when you need even more acoustic power, its quarter-sawn Sitka spruce bracing adds extra projection that blends seamlessly with the guitar’s natural harmonics. For Sweetwater guitarists, the standout feature of the Comfort series is the ergonomic armrest bevel — a supportive rest for your picking arm so comfortable you may find yourself playing longer than you planned. An okoume neck and purpleheart fingerboard round out the design, adding smooth playability and comfort for your fretting hand.
