Adler Guitars DE50-CM Dreadnought - Solid Cedar / Mahogany
The Adler DE50-CM Dreadnought is designed for players who crave a warm, mellow, expressive acoustic voice with plenty of depth and character. Featuring a solid cedar top paired with mahogany back and sides, this dreadnought leans into a beautifully rounded tone — perfect for singer-songwriters, fingerstyle players, folk musicians and anyone who wants a guitar that responds softly and musically to every touch. At Musicmaker we love cedar-topped acoustics for their intimate feel and rich harmonic texture, and the DE50-CM delivers that experience in spades.
Cedar is naturally more responsive to lighter playing styles than spruce, offering a smooth, full midrange and a warm attack. When matched with mahogany, the result is a guitar with a focused, earthy voice — ideal for recording, performing, and crafting dynamic arrangements. The open-pore finish keeps the instrument resonant and lightweight, allowing the wood to breathe and enhancing the natural acoustic character.
A mahogany neck with a Pau Ferro fingerboard ensures comfortable playability along the full 643 mm scale length, while the 43 mm nut width provides an easy transition between strumming and fingerstyle. The bone nut and saddle deliver improved sustain and note clarity, and the chrome diecast tuners keep your tuning solid during long sessions. A clear pickguard protects the cedar top without hiding its beautiful grain.
Equipped with Fishman Presys II electronics, the DE50-CM maintains its warm, natural tone when amplified, giving you clean stage sound with intuitive onboard controls.
