In 1982 Robert Godin produced the first Seagull guitars in the Village of LaPatrie, Quebec. The concept for the Seagull guitar was to take the essential components of the best hand-crafted guitars and build these features into guitars that could be priced within the reach of working musicians.
Hand made in Canada, the Seagull Excursion Series sets a new benchmark for affordable North American made acoustic guitars.
Seagull have taken a different approach with the Excursion series and the Natural Dreadnought SG features a 3-layer lamination of real Canadian Hardwood – Wild Cherry for the Top, Back & Sides. This lamination means that this guitar has a light yet incredibly strong top that resonates freely with a superb tone straight out of the box that is both powerful and articulate. Other features include a burn stamped rosette, semi-gloss Custom Polished finish, and Seagull Slim neck with slimmer nut width.

The Seagull Natural Dreadnought SG is beautifully understated, with the only decoration being the burn stamp ‘rosette’ that reads “Handcrafted in the village of Princeville Quebec Canada”, which is a nice reminder that you’re playing a Canadian built guitar that feels, sounds and looks at lot more than it costs!
We sincerely believe that you will struggle to find a guitar that’s better made at this price. The internal bracing and kerfed linings are impeccably crafted. The Silver-Leaf Maple neck, too, with its solid Rosewood fingerboard, tidy frets and slightly rounded edges, comes with quite a supremely comfortable and eminently playable electric-like neck shape and width.
Combined with an impressive setup and quality enclosed 14:1 ratio tuning machines, not to mention a Compensated Tusq® saddle by on the rosewood pin bridge, this is a guitar centred on affordability and quality over bling and on-paper specifications.
Of course, none of the above matters an iota if it doesn’t play well and sound good. And that’s where you’re in for a treat. Aside from being a really easy, positive player, there’s a real strength to the tonality and big, open rock voicings sound huge when you dig in with a pick. Upper-fret lead lines also have power and strength.
The Seagull Natural Dreadnought SG is definitely not an entry level guitar but you can buy it today at an entry level price!
