Ergonomic Body Design

Our Moulding technology provides us the freedom to create a wonderfully ergonomic body design featuring the extended neck access, asymmetric side design, rib and forearm bevels which all combined give unprecedented comfort to the player

Tuners

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.

X20 12 String
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. 

X20 12 String
Unique Manufacturing Process

Intricacy is our excellence. Our signature one-piece moulding process delivers a guitar that is both incredibly strong and stable, resulting in fewer trips to your local luthier. The entire neck and body of Emerald Guitars are moulded together resulting in no joints becoming weak or failing over time whilst delivering impeccable resonance and sustain.

X20 Nylon - X20-Nylon is perfect

The detail and finish of this X20-Nylon is perfect… haven’t seen a single place on the guitar that shows any carbon-fiber fabric edges, stray fibers, gaps or flaws in the top coat. The action & playability of the next is excellent, as is the tone of each string. The sustain of the strings is far better than I imagined possible for a nylon-stringed guitar. The tone of the two pickups when plugged in sound excellent, and complement each other well. Thanks, Emerald!! Love it!! I had high expectations because of the X20-7 I purchased a year ago, and this X20-Nylon easily et or exceeded every expectation !
