Advanced X-M bracing
Designed to carry string vibration through the bridge and body for projection and dynamic response.

Independent shopping perspective
Built around an Advanced Auditorium design, the AAM54 pairs a solid sapele top with sapele back and sides for a warm, balanced acoustic voice. Its Advanced X-M bracing is designed for projection, low-end clarity, detailed highs and a broad dynamic response. The player-facing A.I.R.port lets you hear the guitar more directly while playing. An okoume oval neck, purpleheart bridge and Advantage bridge pins round out a practical steel-string setup for fingerstyle passages and stronger strumming.
