This is the first time that we have given a Seagull model as specific a designation. The GT QII is a new model inspired by the idea of combining three new things that we are particularly excited about. Our new gloss-top finish, the new Quantum II electronics, and the revolutionary Fort EPP case. The gloss-top finish is made with genuine lacquer and it's about the same thickness as our semi-gloss finish but buffed to a high luster. This is truly a great breakthrough in that the guitar has the added responsiveness provided by an extra light finish along with the great looks of highgloss. The Quantum II electronics are a standard feature in this guitar. This is a truly spectacular dual source system. The under-saddle pickup can be used on its own with excellent results in high volume situations or can be mixed with the signal from the internal microphone for more critical listening situations such as recording. This system won unanimous raves in multiple blind listening tests that we conducted. Note: TRIC Case INCLUDED.
