The Custom Masterworks models offer elegance and tonality, with innovative features and premium tonewoods and components throughout. The slim front-bevel armrest reduces negative impact to top performance while offering comfort, especially when playing longer sessions. The ergonomics continue with a second bevel on the back side of the guitar. This “chest-rest” is a slim bevel at the back waist and lower bout which often leans into your body when playing. Removing this edge allows you to lean the guitar into the body without the binding creating any discomfort. The look and feel add comfort and a striking aesthetic to this custom model.
 
The feature list on Custom models continues with premium abalone purfling, a flawless Shadowburst finish and cutaway. Like all Masterworks, Masterworks Custom is fitted with the LR Baggs HiFi system. HiFi is a revolutionary new powered-sensor pickup system that delivers an exceptional reproduction of the guitar’s tonality and acoustic personality.
 
This MD70ce Custom is made with a AAA North American top and hand-selected East Indian Rosewood back and sides. It is a powerful instrument with impressive bass response and excellent overall volume which is enhanced by its shimmering trebles. This is a very articulate Dreadnought with lots of tonal color and breadth, and beautifully dressed.
