The original Seagull S6 is one of the best all time Seagull acoustic guitars ever. It features a quality solid cedar top which works superbly well when blended with the carefully chosen wild cherry back and sides. Seagull guitars are well known around the world for producing amazing value for money and we would in our opinion say that this guitar is certainly one of the best in this price range on the market today and punches well above its weight. The S6 Original is built in Canada and boasts sought after Canadian natural materials including a solid Cedar top and Canadian Silver Leaf maple neck. Seagulls have been built by the Godin family for several generations and have many years of experience and dedication behind the design and construction. This is a quality acoustic instrument made by a dedicated team of experienced and proud guitar builders. A Canadian guitar at an unbelievable price. We highly recommend this instrument.
The first noticeable thing when you play this guitar is the incredibly natural feel. This is there because of the careful consideration Seagull have put into the effect the finish has on the overall tone of the guitar. Their approach to finishing the guitar with a semi-gloss custom polish allows the wood to resonate beautifully showing vital tonal advantages over other brands. This is an excellent guitar which we highly recommend.

Prepairing a guitar to be dispatched to a customer is an extremely important part of our service. It starts with a thorough inspection of the material and construction quality. If we do not feel the guitar reaches the expected standard of the make and model it will NOT be dispatched.
When it is established that the construction and material is of the expected quality we then assess how the guitar performs both tonally and playability. Adjustments are then made to make sure the instrument achieves optimum performance.
If you have a preference as to how the guitar is setup we would welcome this at the stage of ordering and carry out the custom setup at NO extra charge.

The first ever Seagull guitar to be made with in 1982 in the village of LaPatrie, Quebec by Robert Godin. The inspiration for these guitars came from the best hand made guitars of the time. Incorporating essetial components from these guitars togeather with Roberts luthier skills brought a superb quality guitar at a price within the reach of working musicians.
Seagull has grown from strength to strength and today represents a massive brand in the acoustic world. They are highly rated guitars which even today still punch well above their price tag giving some extremely reputable brands a run for their money. At Project Music we praise and demonstrate the superb performance of these guitars at evey opportunity and recommend them strongly.
