With the solid Chardonnay GACE-MR Dowina impressively proves that exquisite tonewoods and high-quality craftsmanship are standard. Accordingly, an exceptional Monte Rosa cedar ceiling with unique sound characteristics sits enthroned on a walnut body. Monte Rosa cedar grows in higher mountain regions where the climate is rougher. As a result, this special cedar develops a higher density and stiffness than the standard cedar. The sound reminds of the characteristics between standard cedar and Sitka spruce, with the best characteristics of both woods. Accordingly, this Grand Auditorium resonates with powerful and clearly defined basses, nuanced and vocal mids, as well as fine silver highs. This makes Dowina Chardonnay GACE-MR ideal for powerful vocal accompaniment with strumming or flatpicking.
In addition, chrome-plated die-cast mechanisms ensure tuning stability and precise tuning, while a compensated bone bridge insert provides optimum resonance transmission and a flat string position. In addition, a saddle width of 45mm leaves plenty of room even for larger fingers.
The attention to detail and the high standard of craftsmanship is evident in the Snowflake fingerboard inlays, the elaborate wooden rosette and the chic maple binding. For stage use the L.R. Baggs Stage Pro Element pickup system is available, which in addition to a tuner, 3-band equalizer and phase switch, transmits the outstanding sound of the guitar with natural balance and wide dynamic range to the amplifier.
