Dreadnought Acoustic Guitars

The most common of all the acoustic guitar shapes, the dreadnought acoustic guitar was originally developed by C.F. Martin & Co in 1916. Due to its bigger body size than the orchestra models of the time, the dreadnought offered a louder sound and greater projection; enabling it to cut through the mix of big bands and large ensembles. It’s tonality became synonymous with folk, bluegrass and other American music styles and the dreadnought grew to be the shape we most often think of when we think of an acoustic guitar. Often utilising a 14 fret neck, with a spruce top and rosewood or mahogany back and sides, many guitar companies took Martin’s design and developed iconic dreadnought models of their own. Companies such as Gibson and Guild became highly regarded guitar manufacturers, due in part some of their widely played dreadnought acoustics such as the slope shouldered Gibson J45 and square shouldered Gibson Hummingbird and Guild D-55. In comparatively recent years, Australian manufacturers such as Maton and Cole Clark have built their name with high quality acoustic guitars, often using native timbers and developing high quality pickup systems for the performing musician.
