The powerful Dreadnought one is one of the best-known designs among western guitars and a true all-rounder with a wide tonal spectrum. Deeply Folk rooted in the music of bluegrass, it Dreadnought is suitable for both strumming and flatpicking with a powerful touch. The Dreadnought design is often used for 12-string instruments, as its immense sonority underlines the instrument's double chorus.
This Expression System 2 is an upgrade to the previously used version of the in-house pickup system. In contrast to previous practice, the Transducer ES2 is not located under but behind the web insert. This was due to the consideration that the insole is limited in its vertical oscillation due to the high string tension, but can oscillate back and forth. The Piezo pickup takes advantage of this movement to produce a warm, full and less biting sound.
