- ST-61 Natural Finish 6 String Acoustic
Product Description
A guitar should be visually inspiring, regardless of how much it costs.The GOLD RUSH series acoustics use professional body and headstock shapes, rather than compromised catalog shapes that are scaled back to save a few pennies. The mechanics, such as the neck and headstock angle, are treated the same as on our premium guitars.The difference is only in the simplicity, rather than the quality.

This is an amazing guitar for the price.Made in Indonesia with Grover tuners, satin finish, is a Greg Bennett design, and manufactured by Samick and plays and feels very nice and is part of the "Gold Rush" series as denoted by the number one (1),ST61 = Gold Rush: all mahogany, ST62= Regency: spruce top and the rest mahogany.By the way, in all cases the mahogany is NATO which is the current South American hard wood that resembles mahogany and you should not be afraid of it, as it is beautiful and does a great job.The neck is C shaped and the frets are set low and are not hanging out to give you finger rash.If you are thinking of a smaller acoustic for you, or the kid, go for either the ST61 or the ST62, or for a bit larger guitar, the ST91 and ST92 series and you will not be disappointed.I own close to 70 guitars and this is without a doubt one of the best 3/4 size guitars I have ever come by.I would recommend changing out the 12-54 strings to 10-47's or 11-52's, as this is a short scale (18 frets) guitar, and the frets are small and sit low which makes something like barr chording a beeotch with heavier strings. This is kind of a pet peeve of mine anyway; with manufacturers sending out travel, parlor, kids, 1/2 and 3/4 scale guitars with 12-54 strings on them.The guitars actual length is 35-1/4" with a 23-1/2" scale and they call it a 36" guitar.The next up is the ST91 or ST92 that is 37-1/4" long with a scale of 23-3/4" and they call it a 39" guitar which is about a 7/8 size guitar.Compare these with the 1931/32 Gibson L1 flat top with a length of 38-1/4" and a scale of 25" andthe ST92 comes up just a bit short of calling it a parlor guitar and the Samick guitars do not change depth as the Gibson does.

I ordered two guitars (one for each of my boys) for Christmas. The delivery date was a couple of days off and ended up getting here right before Christmas Eve, instead of the week before (as noted on the original receipt). So... no big deal, I think. The package was delivered on late the day before Christmas Eve... Perfect!!! Opened the package and there was only one guitar :-( Contacted the company and they said something to the effect of "Ooppss... we forgot to ship the other one" :-( So much for Christmas :-( Got the other guitar right before New Year... AFTER Christmas was done and over with :-( Boys were bummed :-( As for the guitar itself... AMAZING guitars!!! I would definitely recommend!!! Just make sure you don't need them right away.

The order arrived promptly, packaged and protected well. Great product, exactly as described. I did follow recommendation of others online and replaced strings with light-weight strings which improved sound quality immensely.
