The Batiksoul Guitar No.121 with a Grand Concert body and Flamed Mango Top sounds like a stunning and finely crafted instrument! The combination of materials such as the solid mahogany backside, ebony bindings, and the intricate abalone purfling and rosette should contribute to its exceptional aesthetic appeal. The C-shaped neck with solid mahogany and the 16” radius ebony fretboard would make for a comfortable playing experience, particularly with the stainless Jescar frets for smooth playability.
This guitar’s choice of materials, like the Ebony Macassar for the fretboard, bridge, and armrest, adds both tonal warmth and visual elegance. The addition of a Nubone saddle and bridge pins should also ensure good tonal clarity and sustain. With D’Addario XT 0.11 Bronze strings, it should have a nice balance between brightness and warmth.
The Gotoh SGS510Z-FL5 tuning machines are a quality touch, providing stability and precise tuning adjustments. The matte polyurethane finish gives the instrument a more natural, understated look, preserving the wood’s character while ensuring durability.
