Duke D-MC-Cut Akustická gitara

Dreadnought Cutaway Acoustic Guitar with Cedar Top and Mahogany Body

The Duke D-MC-Cut is a modern Dreadnought acoustic guitar with a cutaway, designed for advanced players who want the volume and bass of a dreadnought together with easy access to the upper frets. A solid Canadian cedar top paired with a laminated mahogany body delivers powerful basses and warm highs, making the guitar a strong partner for strumming, flatpicking and fingerstyle alike. It is a purely acoustic instrument without onboard electronics.

What Sets the D-MC-Cut Apart

Like every Duke, the D-MC-Cut is finalized by guitar builders in Tübingen, Germany. It leaves the workshop with newly dressed and polished frets and a play-ready string action, so it feels comfortable from the first chord. Selected materials such as a bone nut and saddle and an ebony fingerboard are part of the standard equipment, together with an Elixir Nanoweb string set.

Tonewoods and Body — Cedar Warmth, Mahogany Punch

The solid cedar top responds quickly to the player's touch, while the mahogany back and sides add focus and a woody low end to the dreadnought voice.

• Top: Solid Canadian cedar — quick response and warm, balanced tone
• Back & Sides: Mahogany — powerful basses and a focused midrange
• Body: Dreadnought with cutaway — full volume with access to the upper register
• Binding: Mahogany — clean edge that frames the body

Neck and Playability — Stable and Easy to Adjust

The neck combines a Spanish cedar shaft with a dual-action truss rod and an ebony fingerboard for a stable, smooth playing surface.

• Neck: Spanish cedar (cedro) with dual-action truss rod — light, stable and precisely adjustable
• Fingerboard: Ebony — dense, smooth surface for clear note definition
• Scale Length: 650 mm — full dreadnought scale and string tension
• Nut Width: 45 mm — comfortable spacing for chords and fingerstyle

Hardware and Finish — Bone, Ebony and High Gloss

The hardware is chosen for efficient string-to-body transfer and reliable tuning.

• Nut & Saddle: Bone — efficient transfer of string vibration
• Bridge: Ebony — dense anchor for the strings
• Machineheads: Closed, chrome — smooth tuning action and stable tuning
• Finish: High gloss — protects the tonewoods and shows off the grain
• Strings: Elixir Nanoweb 80/20 Bronze .012–.053 — coated for long tone life

Who the D-MC-Cut Is Built For

The D-MC-Cut is the right choice for advanced players who want a dreadnought with a warm cedar voice and the freedom to reach the upper frets for lead lines and chord extensions. Singer-songwriters will appreciate the powerful basses that support a voice without amplification, while fingerstyle players benefit from the quick response of the solid cedar top. Right-handed players get a guitar that is set up and ready to play straight out of the box.
