Crafted from premium grade solid Sitka spruce, the top of the A8 exhibits exceptional strength and dense grains. This master grade top offers incredible flexibility and resonance, allowing your playing to soar with clarity and brilliance. The high-end sparkles, the midrange is warm and rich, and the low-end is deep and tight, resulting in a beautifully balanced sound across all frequencies. Whatever style of music you choose, the Sitka spruce top of the A8 will bring out the best in your playing.
