Why Choose Merida Castellan Semi Acoustic Guitar?

The Merida Castellan Semi Acoustic Guitar is built without compromise. As the flagship of the Merida Extrema Prominence Series every single component has been chosen for maximum tone, playability and stage impact. The all-solid construction — solid spruce top with solid mahogany back and sides — delivers the richest most resonant and most musical acoustic tone possible. The camel bone nut and saddle is a step above even regular bone for the finest possible tone transfer and tuning stability. The flamed maple neck provides a fast and comfortable playing feel while delivering stunning visual impact. The professional LR Baggs VTC pickup ensures your natural acoustic tone
is reproduced faithfully on stage. And the commanding high gloss Black finish makes the Merida Castellan Semi Acoustic Guitar the most visually striking professional semi acoustic guitar available online in India.

What Is the Merida Extrema Prominence Series?

The Merida Extrema Prominence Series represents the absolute pinnacle of Merida Extrema guitar making. Instruments in the Prominence Series are built with the finest materials, most precise craftsmanship and most
advanced specifications available from Merida Extrema. The Merida Castellan Semi Acoustic Guitar from the Prominence Series delivers a professional playing experience that rivals instruments costing significantly more — making it exceptional value for serious players and professionals in India.

What Makes All Solid Construction So Important?

The Merida Castellan Semi Acoustic Guitar features all solid construction — both the solid spruce top AND the solid
mahogany back and sides are made from solid wood not laminate. This is the most important feature of any premium acoustic guitar. Solid wood construction vibrates freely and produces a richer more complex and more resonant tone that improves and opens up the more you play it. Laminate guitars sound the same forever. Solid construction guitars get better with every hour of playing — developing a deeper richer and more personal tone over time.

What Is Camel Bone Nut and Saddle?

The camel bone nut and saddle on the Merida Castellan Semi Acoustic Guitar is a premium upgrade above even the
regular bone nut and saddle found on most high-end guitars. Camel bone is denser and harder than cow bone delivering even superior tone transfer, better sustain, enhanced harmonic clarity and improved tuning stability.
It is the finest natural material available for guitar nuts and saddles and is found only on the most premium instruments in the world.

What Is LR Baggs VTC Pickup?

The LR Baggs VTC pickup on the Merida Castellan Semi Acoustic Guitar is a professional acoustic pickup system trusted by touring professionals and recording artists worldwide. LR Baggs is the professional pickup brand of choice for serious performing guitarists for its natural transparent acoustic tone reproduction that faithfully captures the natural voice of the guitar on stage and in the studio.
