The solid construction is completely focussed on great playability and an even better sound. The A3G has a compact, very comfortable body with cutaway. The sound of this size with a solid spruce top and mahogany sides and back offer bold lows, a proper mid-range and clear high frequencies. The pickup system is very natural sounding and very easy to use. The Sire SIB (Simple Is Better) pickup system with onboard pre-amp combines an under saddle piezo pickup with an internal microphone. The discrete controls in the side of the guitar are a volume control, a balance control for the internal microphone and piezo, EQ searcher. The impeccable wood selection, excellent workmanship and innovative electronics are already revered by all Sire Marcus Miller fans. Sire is the very successful builder of Sire Marcus Miller electric basses in which excellent quality and affordable prices go together well. Now, Sire has done this to the acoustic guitar.
