Shivelbine Music Teton STS103NT-OP Dreadnought Acoustic Guitar

The STS103NT-OP can only be described as “woodsy.” This all mahogany-bodied guitar is just as at home in your guitar collection as it would be in the middle of the Teton mountain range. The top is a solid African mahogany which has a very precise and balanced tone. Mahogany does not have the shimmer of spruce or the dark mellowness of cedar. Its tone is considered to be very pure and natural. The dark mahogany body is set off by light maple binding. The visual contrast is dynamic and provides an excellent backdrop to the tonal qualities of an all mahogany guitar. The open pore finish allows the wood to move and react to the string vibration in a very organic way. This guitar is all about classic tone and undeniable good looks.
