SUZUKI "HOUSTON" DREADNAUGHT SEMI ACOUSTIC (SDG35CE) WITH BAG

The Houston is Suzuki's 'Flagship' Dreadnaught Acoustic-Electric guitar and

is from the range of Professional Class Acoustics.  The action is fast and

accurate. Using materials tried and tested in guitar making over the years

(Spruce top, Mahogany back, sides and neck, rosewood fingerboard), the

Houston offers the quality and clarity of a high end Suzuki Dreadnaught, but

with the ability to plug into an amplifier. Discussing the electronics

installed in Suzuki Semi Acoustics (PP3 battery included), David Etheridge

of Music Mart magazine states "The 4 band EQ is very well chosen; the bass

end will make the furniture rattle at high levels, the mid can boost the

body of the guitar or be cut for added punch in a sound, and the high end

adds brightness without ever being harsh, while the presence slider adds

right hand attack and air to the sound. The overall result is a

comprehensive range of sounds for all seasons."

 

The Houston  easily equals guitars with a much, much higher price tag and

you should expect to own this guitar for many years.

 

Suzuki well understands the importance of looking good as well as sounding

good and so this model is finished in High Gloss Black and Ivory with highly

polished machine heads. Certainly a guitar to be proud of. 

 

Quality control is stringent and along with other tests the neck is checked

for accuracy and should come to you as straight as an arrow. The action is

set accurately on the 1st and 12th fret and checked by QC. In all, this is a

beautifully constructed and finished instrument of a build quality we expect

from Suzuki. It is completely unlike the poor quality rubbish that seems to

litter the market (If you examine many guitars you will find poor quality

construction, overspray, messy glue stains, stickers around the sound hole

that peel off, bad intonation and bridge design, etc etc.) This is not the

case with a Suzuki Guitar. It is supplied with gig bag for protection.
