An acoustic-electric with professional features at an accessible price.
The Merida Cobra Beyond Series Grand Concert acoustic-electric guitar provides premium tone and playability. Its solid spruce top paired with quilted sapele back and sides generate rich, balanced acoustic resonance with shimmering highs and tight low end. The slim mahogany neck and rosewood fingerboard feel smooth and comfortable, facilitating intricate fingerpicking or strumming chords.
All-Solid Wood Construction Means Superior Tone
The Cobra's all-solid wood body resonates freely, producing full-bodied tone with impressive projection. The spruce top provides crisp articulation and chime while the sapele back and sides add low-end warmth and midrange punch. Together, these premium woods create an acoustic voice that inspires your creativity.
Slim Neck Profile Means Effortless Playability
The mahogany neck has an easy-playing slim profile that makes complex chords and single-note runs a joy to play. Its rosewood fingerboard offers a smooth surface for bending notes and legato techniques. A cutaway provides access to higher frets, extending your tonal palette. Overall, the Cobra's neck balances comfort and precision, allowing your skills to shine through.
Onboard Electronics Mean Stage-Ready Versatility
The Cobra features a Fishman ISY-201 pickup system with volume and tone controls. The discreet undersaddle transducer accurately conveys your acoustic tone through any PA or amp. Shape your amplified sound with the onboard EQ, dialing in the perfect balance of lows, mids and highs for the gig. A padded gig bag protects your Cobra during transport and storage so you can take your acoustic show on the road.
Premium Appointments for Superior Playability
From its comfortable armrest and C-shaped neck to its smooth fret ends, the Cobra is designed for playability. The C-shaped neck offers an ideal profile for chording and single-note playing, with a slim, fast feel. The armrest gives you a natural place to rest your arm for long practice sessions. The Cobra's satin finish maximizes resonance while keeping the neck smooth. Premium touches like these help the Cobra play like a dream.
