OQAN QGA-101 BKCE (PREAMP) - Electro-acoustic Dreadnought guitar with cutaway
The OQAN QGA-101 BKCE is a 6-string electro-acoustic guitar that combines classic design with modern features, designed to offer both beginners and intermediate players a superior playing experience. Its Dreadnought body with a cutaway not only provides a powerful, deep, and nuanced sound, but also facilitates access to the higher frets, allowing for greater melodic versatility.
Built with carefully selected materials for optimal sound performance, the QGA-101 BKCE features a laminated Sitka spruce top, renowned for its clarity and resonance. The sides and back are crafted from sapele, a wood that adds warmth and a well-defined midrange to the instrument's overall tone. This combination of woods produces a balanced and rich sound, ideal for a wide range of musical genres, from pop and rock to folk and country.
One of its most outstanding features is the innovative "Comfort System," an ergonomic armrest integrated into the body that reduces fatigue and improves posture while playing, making long practice sessions or live performances much more comfortable. Its elegant matte black finish gives it a sophisticated and professional look.
