Mitchell Guitars' new Element Series combine feature solid spruce or red cedar tops with sapele or Indian rosewood bodies. Mitchell's shifted, scalloped bracing enables each instrument's top to breathe and resonate. High-ratio die-cast tuners keep tuning stable, while ebony keys and flame maple binding enhance the guitar's appearance.
Element Series acoustic-electric models are outfitted with Fishman's new INK preamps and electronics along with a built-in chromatic tuner for added convenience. The guitars are available in two combinations of premium woods: the ME1, ME1CE and ME1ACE feature striped sapele bodies with a solid spruce top, while the ME2CEC model is built with Indian rosewood back and sides and a solid red cedar top. The guitars are available in dreadnaught and auditorium styles, with some models featuring modified Venetian style cutaways. Street: $299 to $399.
