More than three decades ago, McPherson revolutionized the acoustic guitar world by introducing a unique Offset Soundhole Technology.
This breakthrough design increased the total flexible surface area on the central part of the instrument. Since then, McPherson has continued to be a pioneer in the marketplace with their state-of-the-art bracing, cantilevered neck, and soundhole design.
“It's never been about putting parts together. It's coming up with ideas, testing principles and designing a masterpiece.”
