3D Builder Guide

Compact Body, Full-size Sound
Our parlor-sized small-bodied acoustic guitar is perfect for playing at home and on the road. And for a brilliant performance acoustic, just plug it in.

5-STAR COMFORT: With smooth arm bevels, asymmetrical side design, a 24” scale and a deep rear cutaway, the X7 offers unrivalled playability right up to the 20th fret.

PACKS A PUNCH: The X7 produces a full but punchy mid-range tone, perfect for old school blues, slide, folk and more.

UNRAVEL YOUR TRAVEL: Its compact size and short scale make the X7 the perfect travel companion. Thanks to its carbon-fiber construction, it handles extreme changes in temperature, humidity, and pressure. It’ll be perfectly in tune after a long-haul trip in the hold of a plane.

Customize your guitar using our 3D Builder to select between standard or vibrant weave carbon fiber options.

Standard weave offers a darker pattern, while vibrant weave boasts a brighter, more lively pattern, accentuating a broader array of tones across the available colors.

With up to eight color choices available to complement the carbon fiber on each model, our 3D Builder is the ultimate canvas for personalization.

Real Wood Veneer

While tone is key, aesthetics are an important consideration in guitar design. Some players love the look of carbon fiber, and its aesthetic impact.

VENEER

TYPES

Others prefer the wood look. If you’re a fan of beautiful veneers, we have a remarkable and ever-changing selection of over 40 real wood veneers.

Your chosen veneer will be crafted into the top of the instrument for the best of both worlds: the stability and reliability of our carbon fiber construction and the natural beauty of an exotic wood veneer.

Pickup & Bridge Options

We choose our pickups from the finest manufacturers from around the world to suit the needs of our players and to best capture and reproduce the wonderful tones on offer from our instruments.

Each Emerald model has its own distinct voice, and our 3D Guitar Builder will guide you in choosing the most suitable pickups for each guitar. 

Fully-Adjust-Pickup-6String

Emerald Inlay Design

Make your guitar yours with a selection of custom neck inlays. A range of patterns are available, many of which feature Celtic designs, in a nod to Emerald Guitars’ Irish heritage and the rural landscape in which the instruments are crafted.

You can also customize a message on the 12th fret, adding an extra layer of personalization to your dream guitar, making it uniquely yours.

New era of custom guitar design

When choosing the elements for each part of your custom guitar, you’ll see the updated choices live-as-you-go in the 3D Builder. You can even change the environment in which you view the guitars, switching from a standard white studio background to the Emerald Cottage, to see how your guitar looks in different scenarios.

Hi-Tech Carbon

Carbon fiber is now used in all the most high tech industries from Aerospace to Formula one Racing where strength and weight is paramount. In fact it was in Formula One Power Boat racing that we discovered that the properties of carbon fiber are also perfectly suited to guitar making creating a lightweight structure that holds up under the tension of the strings while resonating freely with the lightest touch.

Weather Resistant

If you have ever traveled with a guitar you will know just how much temperature and humidity changes can effect the structure, tuning stability and tone of a guitar. This is where carbon fibre construction really excells. Now you can take your guitar from a cold car to a warm stage without worrying that your going to go out of tune after the first strum. 

Unique Manufacturing Process
Over the years Emerald have refined their unique one piece moulding technology that allows the entire guitar to be moulded together in one piece. 
The entire neck and body are moulded together in one piece giving a guitar that is incredibly strong and stable with no joints to fail and this in turn makes a guitar with incredible resonance and sustain.

The nicest travel guitar

The nicest travel guitar anyone could ever want. Sounds great acoustically but plugged in it comes alive. It has its own voice compared to my X20 but sits in a mix really cool. Very comfortable 12 fret to the body but access up to 20. I can play all my songs on it. Super light and it just looks badass.
