ENTER THE ARENA
Sporting the distinctive, square shouldered, battleship-inspired, Dreadnought design, the Arena delivers an appropriately colossal sound, with a rich, rounded tone and a crisp, dynamic definition that will appeal equally to unplugged rockers, country blasters, neo-folk troubadours, and bluegrass pickers.
Courtesy of its rugged, solid rosewood and sitka spruce construction, the Arena’s powerful voice and warm presence will ring out loud and clear in any acoustic setting. For larger, amplified live shows and studio sessions, serious quality on-board electrics from industry leaders Fishman ensure that its lively sonic character is reproduced flawlessly.
