Product Spotlight - Seagull S6 Entourage Acoustic Guitar Rustic Burst

[@Thirsty_Fox]

We don't make all that much stuff here in Canada, but what we make is usually quite good.

[@turbosoggy8404]

I’m surprised these guitars, being made in Canada, are as cheap as they are.

[@booishoois309]

Are you putting this comment on every seagull guitar video?

[@Jduhbs]

Very true, you guys gave us RUSH

[@Tull1996]

I normally only shop for Made in US guitars......but I'll always make an exception for a Made in Canada guitar (Of course, I'm pretty close...I can practically throw a hockey puck over the border ;-) )

[@mywaveinwoodswoodperfumes]

omg. made in Canada. and 450 or more?

[@somberamarath]

This is a fantastic guitar and I can't recommend it enough. I absolutely love mine.

[@Lieutenant_Dude]

I got crazy lucky and found a Seagull Entourage with a neck that was flame maple. Dear god, it's gorgeous.

[@itlsofficial]

Guitar Center I really enjoy these spotlight videos with the gentleman doing the explaining, he's really good and makes me want to buy whatever he's overviewing. Kudos.

[@WindOfTheWisp_Janine]

I have this guitar but in the mini-jumbo version...incredible instrument! I have 4 Seagulls & plan to buy more, eventually. Every model is a little different...love all of mine & will keep them forever! Especially love that they are made in North America & that they are environmentally responsible in their use of wood.

[@nicksonthevet]

well said, will you kindly share the clip of your mini jumbo please!

[@MarianIanchis]

WindOfTheWisp What’s your favor Seagull guitar? I’m looking to buy a Seagull S6 acoustic guitar, and I see there are several models.

[@JOPPMAN8000]

Marian 1st try them all out, I have the entourage rustic. I wouldn’t say any other s6 models sound “better” but more different and your taste will decide which you like the best.

[@anubhavpanta6787]

I have the entourage cutaway version too. Such a beautiful guitar, from every aspect. I don't think i'm ever gonna switch.

[@HOZER1990787]

I’m picking one of these up for 250 used Friday.

[@bearwhocares9539]

Me too. 175 tho

[@ProbableCauseBluesBand]

I love these guitars! They do NOT chop down the trees, they use trees that have naturally fallen. They are very environmentally conscious.

[@jberumen1066]

what's the song he's playing at the beginning?

[@iceman123371]

I bought my Rustic Entourage about a year ago. I have since added the LR Baggs Anthem preamp. It is my favorite guitar that I've ever owned or played. It looks stunning and sounds like a very high-quality instrument similar to a Martin, Gibson, or Taylor. Not quite the same, but very competitive in pleasure to listen to once you're in front of one. I've also added a Mitchell's plate and use Cleartone light strings.

[@AngelofDeth110]

Just bought one yesterday, and holy fuck it's incredible. I was gonna go for the Epiphone Hummingbird Pro, but it felt really cheap and sounded thin. Picked this up, and it just blew me away. Great for heavy strumming type music.

[@TheLifeTerm]

I bought one from a dealer on Ebay. I love it. I have 17 Acoustics and acoustic/electrics, all Takamine pro, with the exception of a Washburn, this Seagull sounds every bit as good as the Takamine EF341SC ( Solid Cedar top ) @$1299.00 vs $450 for the Seagull. Only difference is the lack of a preamp / pick-up. Definitely handles the heavy strumming and sounds amazing playing fingerstyle, too. I love this guitar!!

[@yuyangwei2736]

(i put this comment on another video as well, but this video just stated what i have said so i would like to put it again here lol) i just bought a seagull entourage rustic cw qi last friday and damn love it. I was trying to get me a travel size acoustic guitar (i play electric and never bought an acoustic myself lol) with low budget and thus tried many guitars in the musical store including taylor, martin, yamaha, fender, ibanez, norman guitar, simon patrick, and larrivee, etc... for 5+ hrs (i think the staffs hated me so much lol), and finally left with this seagull (well, at least i bought a big guy..)... what can i say...? made in canada where the brand comes from (you know the difference between MIA Fender and MIM ones or prestige Ibanez and the premium right?), cutaway for high position lead playing, solid top, godin especially designed preamp (i suddenly fall in love after randomly plug into a roland acoustic amp lol, Fishman on taylor and martin sounds thin, no depth, hard, and plastic to me lol), and the most scientific headstock design among all the brand (and it looks sexy!) !! the only thing i don't like is that i have to pay another hundred buck to buy a seagull foam "hardshell" case, while you can get a OEM case from Fender if you buy a CD60CE, or gigbag if choose baby taylor or mini martin... yeah i was thinking to buy a guitar for travel a lot, so it would be muc better if it come with a case, i didn't think i would go with this regular size seagull at all...... but finally my logic was beaten by the touching sound... i was in conflict of choices among taylor GS mini (this guitar is actually excellent, making deep warm sound with a size i really appreciate, the most important thing is that it comes with a high high high quality gigbag!! but no cutaway and a bit too expensive to me..), baby taylor (lower quality gigbag, no cutaway, sounds not that fit to me, looks cheap and it is cheaper but i hate that bolt-on neck so much as well, looks it will be bending and broken anytime), mini martin (same price as baby taylor, sexy neck, but sounds not right to me, actually all the "cheap" martin guitar sounds not my taste at all..), yamaha APX series (sounds too hard and plastic, but right size, with cutaway, cheaper, but no case would fit its body perfectly...), fender CD60CE (quality looks and actually feels bad, but cheap, with a hardshell case, well, can be a choice lol), and this seagull ce qi. ..................... i don't know what to say, but i was just looking at the neck joint and compare this part to the others, the neck joint just show how seagull (and other godin line guitars) can make the same quality guitars as taylor and martin with the same or even cheaper price as yamaha, fender, ibanez... when i was testing, there was a gentleman who may be a beginner of learning guitar and his parents coming to me and listened to my playing of several guitar including the one i bought, after i hanged my seagull back, he picked it up and went to another test room and several minutes later, he came out and purchased a new-in-box one, same model... then i went to the sales and they told me the demo one i played was the last in store, the gentleman just bought the second last one new-in-box, i regretted a bit that i didn't make decision earlier so i can go with a brand new one but later i just said "i don't fxxking care, just want it!" so the store sold this model out within 2 hrs in one day lol. ///// kk, i know i am talking shit too much, in a word, the seagull is the balance among every point: building quality, price, sound (well, sound is pretty biased tho)... except for not coming with a case...

[@venomvette84]

Not a fan of the headstock but Damn it blows other guitar's away in it's price range.

[@Tibosan2]

Ok the headstock looks like a buttplug but it's terrific on strings stability!

[@barrya.6212]

The headstock is very appealing to me....the best out there IMO.... but to each his own right...

[@richardshank7659]

I love Yamaha and seagull may just be catching my eye more between the two.

[@johnquest8115]

Hello, I have had this exact guitar 16 years now, performed with it at church events , etc. I am very happy with this acoustic. I own 3 other acoustic guitars by major companies but, this one is my favorite.

[@Edward_Hazebroek]

What guitars do you also own?

[@RachelSemeson]

Edward Hazebroek that’s a good question

[@charlieo.possum5501]

Do you eat a lot of Deviled Ham?

[@MrKerrGriffin]

I've had mine for about a year and I love it. I would definitely but this guitar again and would also consider Seagull's other models. A++

[@chainlink4241]

I've had a Godin A6 for about 6 years now, and a guy I know ended up listing one of these on Craigslist. I didn't know much about the Seagull line of guitars at the time, but I'm glad I grabbed this one. I highly doubt I'll ever part with it, it's got such a unique sound compared to my other acoustic guitars. Just put a set of Ernie Ball Paradigm strings on it and it sounds and plays like a guitar that would easily cost ten times what I paid for it used.

[@kevinc1968]

I have one of these...such a great guitar...sounds better every time I play it...its my favorite guitar really

[@soulvaccination8679]

I bought one.Put some really good strings on it and wow..Amazing guitar for the Money I paid for it.As good as some of the Martins to tell you the truth.

[@theycallmeglen]

Love my S6 Original and S12. Seagull is the best value out there!

[@Astrodent1]

This great man is really good in describing things, and he also has a very rare condition which is "Heterochromia iridium". Thanks Canada!

[@lu9thix]

This guitar has got soul

[@jaredmonjaras]

My wife gifted me the Seagull Entourage Rustic CW QI. It sounds fantastic, and when I bring it out to play, I always get compliments. If you are deciding to get this guitar... DO IT!

[@ethananderson2380]

song at beginning?

[@arthurogle7581]

Mr. Sanchez: I paid $329.00 for my used S6. Whomever owned it gave it lot's of TLC. Absolutely mint condition. Action at the 12th fret? 90 thousandths. Bridge still firmly secured to the top. No dings, scratches or blemishes. Musta been played by an ole maid school teacher as they say in the used car bizness.

[@arthurogle7581]

Fox: Don't wanna belabor the point, but in re: made in Canada dont forget the Jean Larrivee guitar!!! Not exactly kindling themselves. I own a used S 6. Mulling on buying a n Entourage.At less than 1/4th of Martins Ive bought.

[@AndalusianIrish]

Gorgeous looking guitar and sounds amazing.

[@iantheman7323]

[@katz2_233]

Yes

[@katz2_233]

One of the best for the price

[@Guide1089]

I hope you got one. For about $600 you could have gotten this Seagull- but it's worth much more. And they play so good, feel great in your hands...

[@leedee4968]

Great guitars

[@arthurogle7581]

Got my eye on a used Entourage that has been treated like a red headed step child. Big crack in front upper bout. Dealer asking $185.00 for it. Pretty sure 4 cleats to the underside of the top and some Lock Tite glue will heal a world of hurt. Did the same drill to a Martin and sold it for double the purchase price!!!

[@lerax2010]

I visited local Guitar store and tried Seagull guitars. And I am slightly confused... All seagulls I played had frets flattened at thair top. Why is that??? every one expirienced misician wants frets to be rounded, not flat

[@shawnburt6124]

I bought mine in 2011 and I've really played the hell out of it. Lots of finger style stuff with different tunings. I find the action is a bit high but I've never had it set up since then so it could probably use some adjustments. Either way it's only sound better over the years!

[@Dr.JesseLiang]

Just great ! Thanks for posting

[@Mauriciograble]

Love my entourage! It’s called Isabel for my baby cousin born in Montreal. I played it everyday and it gets better and better each day.

[@grabsakturnenkoff5596]

Beautiful sound

[@harlequin75]

This is a resonating beast of a guitar. I find it easy to play. If you have sausage fingers then it might be tougher because the neck is narrower. The action is perfect.

[@30smsuperstrat]

That’s the darkest sounding S6 I’ve ever heard. Sounds very J45ish

[@rafaeldiaz7636]

Should I get this, the Seagull Entourage Rustic it the Epiphone Hummingbird Pro?

[@rustyshackleford4743]

+Rafael Diaz Epiphone kinda sucks in my opinion

[@Christopher-on7og]

+Rafael Diaz I aggree with Rusty Sackleford. The eipphone sucks, it has a sticky neck ... This Seagull is really great if you like struming but for fingerpicking it's not a great choice. I have this guitar and love it.

[@debeastdueeast]

+Christopher “Ptit Troll” D Why isn't it going for fingerpicking? I'm a beginner and I'm considering getting this guitar, just want toknow.

[@Christopher-on7og]

Well, it depends. It doesn't fit for me, the neck is too thin for me but I have big fingers. For fingerstyle I have a wahburn r319, it's one of the best guitar I have ever played with

[@jonahhusak1037]

+Christopher “Ptit Troll” D sweet then it's perfect for my tiny hands.

[@venomvette84]

I ordered this model! Can't wait to get my hands on it

[@nicksonthevet]

You got it? any unboxing video?

[@venomvette84]

I ordered an excellent condition s6 entourage for $250 from GC from a different state. I paid for it and they never got back to me. I gave it a few days and finally called and they told me they couldn't find it so I cancelled. I went into to a local store and bought a Yamaha FG730s only because they didn't have the s6 in-stock.

[@venomvette84]

s6 Entourage will be my next purchase though. This Yamaha was on sale for for $250 brand new.

[@JOPPMAN8000]

Simon Yes if you can afford it buy it, I have both the sws maritime and the entourage.

[@TheJoe999Man]

I have this very same guitar, sounds great even after 6 years

[@Edward1312]

It should sound better after 6 years you fool!

[@TheLifeTerm]

Tony, yes, like all solid top acoustics, it does sound better with age. But, TheJoe999Man was giving an impression and not being scientific, also may be very young. Maybe not so charitable to call him a "fool"?! I like and agree with your point, just not approach.

[@MatthewPettersen]

It won't necessarily sound better with age. If the frets are worn it won't. Sonically the top will be able to breathe better with time, but that doesn't mean that the guitar will sound better if there are things like fret-wear.

[@ManosRK]

Nice guitar!!!

[@AlznP]

I have this guitar. It has Ernie Ball Earthwood silk and steel strings on it. It sounds like this demo though not as loud. I need to get strings like this guy's.

low

[@spacep0d]

Gorgeous, but I never see these ready to play at Guitar Center (at least not the one near me). I did play a Simon & Patrick once and was impressed, and Godin owns both marques. I love the Seagull headstock. None more beautiful on a guitar in my opinion. Also like the 1.72" nut and shorter scale-length (24.84") on this guitar too. A lot of Seagulls have 1.8" nuts and that seems a bit wide to me, but I won't know until I play one.

If the highlight of a guitar is where it was made instead of the sound, craftsmanship or playability, that’s really interesting.

[@aarongamble9450]

Where a guitar is made says a lot about the sound, craftsmanship, and quality.
