Product Description

Warm, Honest Tone That Keeps You Writing

The Seagull S6 Original is one of those rare acoustics that feels alive in your hands. Strum a chord and you get that warm cedar bloom, tight low end, and clear mids that sit perfectly under a voice.

Pressure Tested Cedar Top For Rich, Responsive Tone

The solid pressure tested cedar top is the secret sauce here. It reacts to a light touch with nuance and detail, then opens up with a big, woody growl when you dig in.

Cedar has a natural warmth that flatters singer songwriters and fingerstylists, and on this S6 the lows stay tight so your sound never turns to mud on stage or in the studio.

Wild Cherry Back And Sides That Cut Without Harshness

Wild cherry back and sides give this dreadnought a focused midrange and just enough brightness to help your parts cut through a mix. You get clarity and definition without the brittle top end some spruce dreads can have.

Paired with the cedar top, the result is a balanced voice that works for strumming, flatpicking, and fingerstyle without needing a bunch of EQ to sit right.

Comfortable Silver Leaf Maple Neck

The silver leaf maple neck feels solid and familiar, with enough substance to keep your fretting hand relaxed over longer sessions. It stays stable through weather swings, rehearsals, and gig after gig.

Real talk, this is the kind of neck you stop thinking about. It just stays out of the way and lets you focus on the song.

Lightweight Dreadnought That Projects

At around 4.6 pounds, this S6 is easy on the shoulder but still has full dreadnought authority. The body depth and overall dimensions give you plenty of volume and projection, whether you are playing unplugged at home or mic’d up in the studio.

The custom polished semi gloss finish looks classy and, more importantly, keeps things thin so the guitar can actually breathe and resonate.

The Lowdown

We get it. Buying a guitar you haven’t played is a big decision. You need to know it’s going to feel right, sound right, and inspire you the second you open the case. We put together the questions we’d be asking if we were in your shoes—the real-world stuff that specs alone can’t answer. If there’s anything else you’re wondering about, just give us a call.

The S6 Original gives you a solid, pressure tested cedar top and real tone woods where a lot of guitars in this range are still cutting corners. That cedar and wild cherry combo delivers a warm, musical voice with a tight bottom end that holds up for recording and live work. If you want a serious songwriting tool without jumping into four-figure territory, this is a very strong contender.
Absolutely. The S6 is kind of a secret weapon for singer songwriters. The warm cedar top flatters your voice instead of fighting it, and the crisp midrange helps your chords and riffs sit in the mix without getting boomy. If your main gig is writing songs, leading worship, or playing solo sets, this guitar hits that sweet spot of comfort, tone, and projection.
The 1.8 inch nut is a touch wider than many factory acoustics, which actually works in your favor if you play fingerstyle or use lots of chord extensions. You get a little more room between strings, so clean chord changes and intricate lines feel less cramped. Most players adapt quickly, and many end up preferring the extra space once they live with it for a bit.
If you are starting out and want a guitar you will not outgrow, the S6 is a smart move. The playability, warm tone, and solid top mean it will still feel inspiring years down the road. More advanced players appreciate that it records well, sits nicely in a mix, and responds to nuance. It is beginner friendly but built with enough quality to keep up as your playing grows.
Of course. Every guitar gets our full Player-Perfect™ setup, but tell us your preferred string gauge and action at checkout, and we’ll dial it in exactly to your spec before it leaves the shop.
This guitar is covered by our 14-Day Return Policy. If you’re not completely inspired by it, just let us know. We’ll make it right.
If you order before 3 PM CST on a weekday, it ships the same day. We’ll get it into your hands fast with free, insured 2-3 day shipping.
Call us at (888) 794-8482. You’ll talk to a real musician who can answer anything you need to know.
