Seagull – Acoustic Guitars for Modern Times

Thanks for visiting the Seagull home page. You’ve dropped in at a particularly exciting time for Seagull guitars as we have recently introduced the new compound-curve top design throughout the Seagull line. If you resisted the urge to click on the compound curve link, we’re tempted to say that we have been working on this for over twenty years and that’s certainly true considering our relentless commitment to product improvement. However, this is something more than the culmination of twenty years of design updates. This is a new acoustic guitar design concept that we have been working specifically towards for the better part of three years now.

If you are already a Seagull player you may be concerned that we’ve been busy fixing something that wasn’t broken. If that’s you, please take note that we haven’t abandoned the Seagull attributes that got us here in the first place. Many familiar Seagull attributes remain, such as, the Seagull tapered headstock, the use of wild cherry back and sides, the unique shape of the Seagull body is only slightly changed. You can also rest assured that Seagull guitars continue to feature luthier-grade solid tops and genuine lacquer finishes.

Another tradition that we’re sticking with is that of maintaining our commitment to the outstanding value that Seagull guitars are known for. Putting professional-quality musical instruments into the hands of musicians—experienced as well as aspiring—at reasonable prices means there is a greater chance of more great music being made and this is arguably our ultimate reward—besides becoming fabulously rich and famous of course.

For an excellent example of the new Seagull design in action we highly recommend a copy of Peppino D’Agostino’s latest release “Every Step of the Way” which features the first commercially available recording using one of the new “Peppino Signature model” guitars which employ the new compound-curve design.
