Summer NAMM: Composite Acoustics i-Series

by Premier Guitar

Nashville, TN (June 25, 2008) -- Non-wood guitars are reaching new levels of boutique quality with builders like Composite Acoustics. The durability and low-maintenance of carbon fiber makes for a scratch resistant, tough guitar that won't go out of tune as the weather changes. However, these guitars are built with acoustics in mind - they sound terrific. New at Summer NAMM, Composite Acoustics unveiled its new i-Series guitars which feature the company's Integrated Top Bracing. Check out the video to hear how they sound.

Jeff Auen on 07/02/2008	I have an Alvarez Yairi MM, a Taylor Limited Edition 714CE, an Ovation Elite, a Gibson Johnny A Signature, A Gretsch White Falcon, Carvin AE 185, Epiphone Les Paul Ultra II, Fender Tele and a Composite Acoustics X Player that I bought for traveling. Guess which one I play the most (by far)? Yep the CA. My Alvarez (which I love BTW) is relegated to backup for live gigs. The CA plays like a strat and sounds better than all the other acoustics when plugged in. I never travel without it. I'd replace it in an hour if it was stolen. It had a loose jack last year. I left an email for tech support at CA. The tech called me within an hour and patiently talked me through the fix (not easy by the way) while I was on the phone. Awesome service. Even better guitar. I took it to Fur Peace Ranch in May. Everybody tried it, loved it. Most were very surprised that they loved it. 2 bought one in June. A custom (my graphics) 8 Series is in my future for those big 'ole campfire hootenanny gigs. - Jeff
