Oscar Schmidt OG2CE Dreadnought Cutaway Acoustic-Electric Guitar, Black

Oscar Schmidt's OG2CE in gloss black: a dreadnought cutaway with a select spruce top over catalpa back and sides, standard X bracing, and a mahogany neck with a rosewood board. The Washburn WT-92 active preamp has a digital tuner built into it, which on a first stage guitar matters more than any spec — plug in, tune silently, play. Chrome die-cast tuners hold pitch, and the truss rod means it sets up properly as it settles.
