The Seagull S6 Collection 1982 acoustic guitar is a wonderful workhorse dreadnought and a tribute to over 40 years of Canadian made guitars.
Here is what Seagull has to say about this model:
To celebrate the acclaimed Seagull S6, which has been on the market for over 40 years, we are pleased to introduce the Seagull S6 Collection 1982. Our guitars are played by musicians of all genres and levels, from beginners to professionals, all over the world! How do we best express our pride in the decades of success of the S6 Original?
By revisiting the guitar of the 1980s — or, more precisely, by creating a version that incorporates all the best features of Seagull guitars at an even more affordable price! To this day, Seagull remains committed to the fundamental principle of selecting the best components available and incorporating them into instruments that remain affordable to all. The S6 Collection 1982 will win you over, both in price and character! The 1982 Seagull S6 Collection 1982 follows the design of the S6 Original with retro S6 features and a shorter 24.84″ scale. Like all Seagull guitars, the S6 Collection 1982 is made entirely in Canada from sustainably sourced wood. The 1982, like the contemporary S6, features a pressure-tested solid Cedar top with Wild Cherry back and sides for superior tone, projection, and response. The Seagull S6 Collection 1982 has a characteristic tone that is bright, rich, warm, and balanced thanks to the natural finish, which allows the instrument to vibrate naturally. Finally, we’ve taken the key aesthetic elements of the era. The retro-‘80s headstock and Seagull logo complete this beautiful 100% Canadian acoustic guitar.
