OQAN QGA-41CE BL - Mini-Jumbo Electroacoustic Guitar with Cutaway
The OQAN QGA-41CE BL is a 6-string electro-acoustic guitar that combines an attractive design, sonic versatility, and quality construction, making it an exceptional choice for both beginner and more experienced guitarists looking for a reliable instrument with character. Its mini-jumbo body not only gives it a balanced aesthetic but also offers a perfect balance between playing comfort and remarkable sound projection—more powerful than a concert guitar but more manageable than a full jumbo.
Built with a spruce top, this guitar produces a bright, clear tone with excellent definition, ideal for standing out in any musical mix. The basswood back and sides complement the spruce's brilliance, adding warmth and depth to the instrument's overall sound. The catalpa neck, along with the compound rosewood fingerboard and bridge, ensures comfortable playing and great structural stability. The distinctive glossy blue finish gives it a unique visual presence on stage or in the studio.
The design incorporates a cutaway , a strategically placed opening in the body that facilitates access to the higher frets. This feature is essential for guitarists who play solos or complex melodies, significantly expanding the instrument's expressive possibilities. Furthermore, its chrome-plated die-cast tuning machines ensure precise and stable tuning during long practice sessions or live performances.
