Crafter VLG-17CE Pro Solid Top Grand Auditorium Cutaway - Natural

The Crafter VLG-17CE Pro Solid Top Grand Auditorium Cutaway – Natural is a beautifully balanced acoustic-electric designed for players who want versatility, clarity and elegant craftsmanship in one instrument. With its comfortable Grand Auditorium body and premium tonewoods, it delivers a voice that works equally well for strumming, fingerstyle and stage performance.

The guitar features a solid European Spruce top, prized for its clarity, dynamic range and responsive character. This top produces crisp articulation and excellent projection, making it ideal for players who want both delicate detail and powerful strumming headroom. Paired with rosewood back and sides, the VLG-17CE Pro develops a rich tonal palette with deep lows, sparkling highs and a balanced midrange.

Its Grand Auditorium body shape sits comfortably between a dreadnought and smaller-bodied acoustic, offering strong projection while remaining comfortable to hold. The cutaway design allows smooth access to the upper frets, making it a great choice for players who enjoy melodic leads and expressive playing further up the neck.

The mahogany neck paired with an ebony fingerboard provides a smooth, fast playing feel and excellent durability. A slightly wider 45 mm nut width gives players more room for fingerstyle techniques while still feeling comfortable for strumming.

Visually, the VLG-17CE Pro carries refined detailing throughout. Abalone position markers along the fingerboard add elegant visual accents, while the abalone and wood rosette around the soundhole provides a striking focal point. Gold tuners with ebony buttons complete the instrument with a touch of classic sophistication.

For stage and studio use, the guitar is fitted with Crafter’s DS-2 Pro+ preamp system with Stealth Tuner, providing clear amplified tone and discreet onboard tuning without interrupting the clean aesthetic of the instrument.

Factory fitted with D’Addario EXP16 strings, the VLG-17CE Pro arrives ready to deliver a lively, balanced sound straight out of the case.

With its combination of premium materials, elegant appointments and reliable electronics, the Crafter VLG-17CE Pro is a versatile acoustic-electric built for players who want both beautiful tone and dependable performance.
