The 2009 Songwriter Deluxe Standard sets a new benchmark for today's acoustic guitars by combining several time-honored production elements of the past with a number of modern, cutting-edge appointments. Using Gibson's popular Songwriter Deluxe Studio as its template, the Songwriter Deluxe Standard adds a new compound radius fingerboard for electric guitar-like playing action, and incorporates Gibsons renowned red spruce top bracing from the 1930s, bonded with traditional hide glue for maximum tone and volume.
