Rainsong APSE Al Petteway Special Edition Acoustic Guitar w/Case

The APSE's OM-sized body is the perfect size for solo fingerstyle players. The frequency response is more balanced across the strings, and the upper strings have a sweet tone that is lacking in larger guitars. It's also easier to play with a band or in duets.

The unidirectional soundboard reproduces the natural wood grain and vibrates like a wood-top guitar, resulting in a more natural resonance in the low frequencies without the imbalance in the mid and high ranges. You’ll also find it easy to mic this guitar live on stage or in the studio, as you won’t need to EQ it to “boom” or go through the trouble of adding high notes.

The all-carbon OM body and 12-fret neck combine with a unidirectional top to deliver a truly spectacular, clear sound. This guitar also features Gotoh SGV510Z tuners, the LR Baggs Stage Pro Anthem system, and a gorgeous tobacco sunburst finish instead of the standard jet black satin finish. The APSE is lightweight and small enough to fit in the passenger cabin.
