Detailed Features & Benefits

Versatile Grand Auditorium Body Design

The Westfield WGA-400-SNT features a traditional Grand Auditorium body that combines elements of folk and dreadnought acoustic guitar designs. Its carefully balanced proportions provide a rich acoustic sound with clear treble frequencies, articulate midrange and controlled bass response. The Grand Auditorium shape offers plenty of natural projection while retaining the clarity required for more intricate playing techniques. Its pronounced waist also provides a comfortable playing experience compared with some larger-bodied acoustic guitars, making the WGA-400-SNT particularly appealing to musicians who regularly move between fingerpicking, flatpicking and strumming.

Solid Top & Mahogany Construction

At the heart of the WGA-400-SNT is a solid wood soundboard designed to deliver a naturally responsive and resonant acoustic voice. The mahogany laminate back and sides complement the solid top by contributing warmth, tonal balance and controlled resonance. Together, these materials create a versatile acoustic sound with excellent definition between individual notes and sufficient depth for full, expressive chord playing. Whether performing delicate fingerstyle passages or energetic strummed arrangements, the WGA-400-SNT delivers a balanced acoustic response suited to a wide variety of musical styles.

Comfortable Full-Scale Neck

The WGA-400-SNT features an Okume neck with a comfortable C-shaped profile, providing a familiar and accessible playing experience for musicians of varying abilities. Its traditional 648mm scale length and 43mm nut width accommodate a wide range of playing techniques, from straightforward open chords to more intricate fingerstyle arrangements and melodic passages. The dovetail neck joint and 14th-fret body connection combine classic acoustic construction with practical upper-fret access, while the Black Richnite fingerboard provides a smooth, durable playing surface.

Elegant Natural Satin Finish

The WGA-400-SNT features an understated Natural Satin finish that highlights the guitar's traditional acoustic styling while offering a refined, contemporary appearance. The satin surface provides a less reflective alternative to conventional high-gloss finishes, making it particularly appealing to players who appreciate a subtle, natural aesthetic. Decorative mahogany body binding, contrasting black-and-white detailing and a traditional solid headstock complete the instrument's attractive appearance.

Quality Hardware & Traditional Appointments

The Westfield WGA-400-SNT incorporates a selection of quality components designed to enhance its overall playing experience. A Graph Tech NuBone nut and saddle help provide consistent string contact and clear note definition, while chrome Der Jung tuning machines offer dependable tuning adjustment. The Black Richlite bridge provides a durable platform for the strings, while the adjustable two-way truss rod allows neck relief to be maintained as required. These practical appointments complement the instrument's traditional design and provide a combination of classic styling and modern functionality.

Ideal for Fingerstyle, Strumming & Songwriting

One of the greatest strengths of the Grand Auditorium body shape is its versatility. The WGA-400-SNT offers a balanced acoustic response that works equally well for fingerstyle arrangements, rhythmic strumming and expressive flatpicking. Its combination of projection, clarity and comfortable proportions makes it particularly appealing to singer-songwriters who need an instrument capable of handling both delicate accompaniment and more energetic performances. Whether used for folk, country, acoustic pop, blues or everyday practice, the WGA-400-SNT provides an excellent all-round acoustic playing experience.
