RainSong

H-WS 6-String: WS1000

 


SFT Shorty Fine Texture 6-string slim body cutaway acoustic electric featuring 12-fret, short-scale NS neck

RainSong's smallest and most refined body shape, a unidirectional soundboard, hybrid body construction and a short scale 12-fret neck -- the perfect combination for an intimate instrument with a warm tone and surprising punch.

Shorty's neck joins the body at the 12th fret rather than the 14th fret.  This moves the bridge back on the soundboard towards the center of the lower bout resulting in improved sonic energy transmission from the strings to the soundboard and enhanced bass response.

Unidirectional carbon mimics the tight grain of a fine Spruce soundboard.  First introduced on the Concert Series, this soundboard is RainSong's lightest. The Hybrid body technology blends the crystalline highs of carbon with the mellow tones of glass.  The synergy between the unidirectional soundboard and the hybrid body is obvious from Shorty's first strum.

The SFT features the Fine Texture, UV protective, polyurethane finish that gives the instrument a subtle yet tough look.
