<p class="MsoNormal">Do not be fooled by its small size if you are thinking it may not have projection and tone, because this little guy is all about projection and tone! In fact you will be surprised how sweet these guitars are! A very clear and pronounced and affordable guitar, they were designed from the parlor guitars of the early 1900&rsquo;s. This is therefore an adult guitar, but it is great for children too. Simply because it is smaller it makes it easier for them to learn on and practice on. But again do not be alarmed of us saying &ldquo;it&rsquo;s great for children&rdquo;, this is an adult guitar. It sounds awesome when you play folk, blues or fingerstyle on it. It&rsquo;s makes an excellent guitar for camping as it is easier to pack and less expensive. It may just be the other sound you were looking for in your music projects as well!</p>
<p><span style="font-size:11.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family:&quot;Calibri&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;;

mso-bidi-theme-font:minor-bidi;mso-ansi-language:EN-US;mso-fareast-language:
EN-US;mso-bidi-language:AR-SA">The back and sides are made of Wild Cherry and the top is a solid top made of cedar. The neck is Silver Leaf Maple with a rosewood fingerboard. Ami&rsquo;s come in multiple colors; Almond, Antique Burst, Black, Blue, and Burgundy. They also have a Nylon string guitar. Depending on which color you get, the Ami&rsquo;s come with different tops; 3-way REAL wood lamination (Almond), solid Cedar (Antique Burst, Black, Blue, and Nylon) or a solid Spruce (Burgundy). They have <span class="sptext"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight:
normal">Tusq</b></span> nuts and saddles which is very impressive considering guitars like <b style="mso-bidi-font-weight:normal">Larrivee</b> use the same. Last of all, the Amis are all made in Canada.</span></p>

<p>Built with custom electronics by EPM, this guitar is easy to use because of the Blendable Dual Source<br />

to blend one into the other. This Multiac Encore is great for the player using a nylon guitar playing live<br />
with a band!<br />
<br />
This model features a chambered silver leaf maple body along with a solid cedar top. A dual source<br />
preamp with volume, treble, mid, bass and blend control sliders is also equipped on this guitar. The<br />
nut size on the Encore is a lot smaller in width compared to most classical guitars, so it&rsquo;s somewhat like<br />
playing on a steel string.</p>
