217e Plus Special Edition Honeyburst
Players looking for vintage-inspired looks and rich, warm tone will love the 217e Plus Special Edition Honeyburst, a round-shoulder Grand Pacific acoustic-electric finished with a lustrous, full-gloss Honey Sunburst color. This model boasts a solid top of torrefied spruce, serving up a punchy, bold voice with a mature, aged-in sweetness and depth. Inside, our C-Class bracing enhances the response with louder volume and longer sustain, while the generous body dimensions produce a seasoned character with clear low-end power. Visual details complementing the burst finish include a black pickguard, gold tuning machines, and crisp white binding.
