The Pursuit Ex. S is a seriously impressive guitar for the money. The myrtlewood top gives it a really clear, almost chime-like quality, while the mahogany back keeps it from being too thin sounding. It's ideal for fingerstyle players or those wanting a bright, responsive acoustic with a reliable amplified option – a great all-rounder for intermediate players.

Frequently Asked Questions

Myrtlewood is generally brighter and more focused than Sitka, offering more immediate articulation but less overall volume. It's also slightly stiffer, which can affect playability for some.
The Presys I is straightforward to operate with basic EQ controls. It delivers a natural amplified tone, but it's not a high-end system – expect a clean, functional sound rather than studio-quality modeling.
Ovangkol is denser than ebony, resulting in a slightly harder feel, though many find it a pleasant alternative. It's a durable and attractive wood, offering a similar visual aesthetic to ebony at a more accessible price point.
