Pasadena PDC-100 Black Dreadnought Guitar — A Cutaway Acoustic for New Players

The Pasadena PDC-100 Black Dreadnought Guitar pairs a Spruce top with Sapele back and sides, offering a single cutaway that targets newcomers eager to expand their reach. A traditional dreadnought body brings out a full, projecting sound, and the cutaway unlocks upper fret access for lead work. Layered construction keeps the price within reach, yet delivers the warmth and balance associated with this body style. This instrument appeals to beginners seeking a stage-ready look, an inviting neck, and hardware that won’t let them down from the first lesson onward.

What Distinguishes This Dreadnought

Beyond the basics, this model includes features uncommon at this price point. Black Richlite fretboard, a composite chosen for its humidity resistance, ensures a smooth, reliable playing surface across all 20 frets. Chrome Die-Cast tuners provide tuning stability even with temperature shifts and vigorous strumming. For added durability, multi-ply binding protects the edges from nicks during travel.

Body and Tonewoods — Dreadnought Sound, Layered for Strength

The tonewood selection is designed for a punchy, even response. Spruce delivers a bright, articulate attack, while Sapele fills in warmth and mid-range focus. Layered Sapele in the back and sides keeps weight down and improves resistance to humidity changes.

• Top: Spruce — delivers clarity, strong projection, and dynamic range for diverse styles
• Back and Sides: Sapele — provides a rich mid-range warmth and depth
• Construction Method: Layered — maintains structural integrity in shifting climates
• Open Pore finish allows the wood to resonate freely, resulting in a more natural acoustic response.

Neck and Playability — Comfortable for Practice and Performance

Its rounded Nato neck and 43 mm nut width give hands room to shape chords or play fingerstyle. The 650 mm scale length provides familiar string tension, while a 355 mm fingerboard radius supports smooth bends and clear lead lines. Simple dot inlays aid visibility on stage.

• Neck Material: Nato — robust wood that adds to the instrument’s warmth and stability
• Fretboard: Black Richlite — engineered for a sleek feel and resistance to environmental stress

Hardware and Strings — Practical and Reliable

Every detail is chosen for reliability and ease. Factory-installed Phosphor Bronze strings make the guitar playable from day one. The Rosewood bridge anchors the strings, while a High-Density Synthetic nut maintains consistent spacing and tuning. The adjustable truss rod provides easy neck adjustment as needed.

• Tuning Machines: Chrome Die-Cast — stable tuning, even during extended practice
