    Seagull S6

    Seagull S6 OriginalPublished on 09/10/04 at 15:00
    Bought this guitar for my Dad who played a little bit,but never owned a good sounding guitar.Purchased from Eds Music Workshop,Ptbo,On.Canada for 279.00 ca

    At the time it was the best sounding guitar I could find for the money,kind of plain looking but great sounding.

    After 15 years the neck has started to sag into the body.

    Solid cedar top,laminated cherry back and sides,mahogany neck,rose wood finger board and saddle.

    For the money you can't buy much better than this for sound.Ive played a lot of guitars over my 25 years of playing,but the sound and action of this guitar has made me feel like staying with it,some times you just can't put it down.

    S6 cedar electroacoustic.
    adjustable treble, bass and volume.
    It seems tough ... aa mine about 1 year
    the paver is perfect.

    UTILIZATION

    I admit that the size of the body is big and it gave me a sore arm at the beginning but now everything is OK.
    Compared to my old shovel and with a lot of noise that I tried I found the handle very enjoyable ...
    It almost does not Disagree, mechanisms are good.
    To get a good sound, just play ... it seems to be a good guitarist

    SOUNDS

    I love this sound ... the patch is not too bright, the hair ...
    In electro, I do not have much exprience ...

    The day I bought it I tried 10 with 2 or 3 guitars takamine ... Thunderbolt.
    From after the seller. takamine is now made with wood that do not take shit long while s'amliorent seagull with age ... yet a little more takamine taient Chres. The first n'tait not tell me that .... I would say in 10 years.
    It is worth its price.

    I'm sorry I did not take as its big sister Describes below ...

    Canadian-made, maple neck, solid cedar top, the rest is three layers of birch and varnished mat. Please note that the table is quite fragile and the slightest touch leaves a mark.
    Good finish, but my shield has moved and apparently I'm not the only one I've been able to verify the absence of other in-store.
    Important to me, the handle has not moved since I have.

    UTILIZATION

    The handle is nice, the frets are well finished and do not hang up.
    By action against the home is relatively high, so I stretched a little neck and down the bridge saddle for a more low, now it's OK

    SOUNDS

    Very nice sound and that gets better with time.

    SOUNDS

    Very nice sound and that gets better with time.
    The Elixir strings pulling him méduim ideal.
    I think the three books are balanced sound but do not expect very sharp crystalline with cedar, it is rather soft and warm as his.
    Good sound diffusion when playing with others, there is power if necessary.
    I add, the more you play with more sound is at the top.

    OVERALL OPINION

    I do not regret my purchase and recommend this brand that offers good value for money.
    In this price range, I think the sound is superior to other brands I've tried.

    handle wide (width Nut 46mn) painted satin, solid wood, cedar table, ribs and bottom cherry, maple neck argenté.diapason 631mn.

    UTILIZATION

    Guitar is light, the access to the treble that of a dreadnought, the handle is easy for a bit beefy paws (there is space in the boxes), the guitar sounds perfectly with elixirs bronzes is a happy, round, warm but not too Brilland, really a great little Canadian

    OVERALL OPINION

    since I play a self, it is the foot, because of the width of the handle fits my big fingers clumsy quality (solid wood table Cedar, ribs and bottom cherry, maple neck silver), very suitable for a beginner that handles folk "conventional" flat rebutent.Seul possible the look of the head rather "lute"
    I recommend this guitar, I do it again this election.

    Seagull S6 OriginalPublished on 05/06/09 at 21:21
    The Seagull S Series S6 is a dreadnought acoustic guitar that has about 21 frets and is not an electric/acoustic, so it has no pick ups or controls. It has a pretty standard look to it as far as dreadnoughts go, but does come in a darker finish than most that I've seen.

    UTILIZATION

    The neck of the Seagull S6 feels pretty good and the guitar is overall really easy play. While it doesn't have the fluidity of some higher end guitars that I've played, it is certainly more than playable and is fine for playing either rhythm or lead. The shape of the guitar is the standard body shape for dreadnought guitars and the weight of the guitar is probably a little bit lighter than most acoustic …

    The neck of the Seagull S6 feels pretty good and the guitar is overall really easy play.

The shape of the guitar is the standard body shape for dreadnought guitars and the weight of the guitar is probably a little bit lighter than most acoustic guitars that I've played. Getting a good sound is pretty easy if you know how to play, but it won't really blow you away.

    SOUNDS

    The sound from the Seagull S6 is pretty good, but wouldn't be my first choice by a long shot when it comes to recording. I like the sound of it but I have other options that I would much rather use. It isn't vibrant enough for my taste, but does cover the full spectrum pretty well, sometimes it just sounds a little dull. However, for practicing it is perfect and is even suitable for shows.

    OVERALL OPINION

    I've been using the Seagull S6 for about three or four years and have found it to be a nice guitar for the price. It is perfect for practicing and even for shows, but I really wouldn't recommend recording with it unless you don't have another option. This being said, it is a mid level guitar and is aimed at the intermediate player looking for a nice guitar that sounds pretty good and is easy to play. It won't blow you away with the sound of it, but for the price you can't really complain. Overall, a nice model from a company that for some reason seems to fly under the radar more than they should.
