Pasadena PGC-100E Black Electro-Acoustic Guitar

The Pasadena PGC-100E Black electro-acoustic features a compact Grand Concert body paired with built-in electronics for versatility in home practice, studio recording, or performing at small venues. The Venetian cutaway gives open access to the upper frets for expressive lead lines. While the spruce top and sapele back and sides create a balanced unplugged voice, this model suits beginners and intermediates needing a single guitar for both acoustic and amplified use.

What Sets the PGC-100E Apart

More than just a basic starter, this instrument includes an undersaddle pickup feeding a 3-band EQ preamp with Presence, Volume, Bass, Middle, and Treble controls, delivering real tonal shaping. With the onboard chromatic tuner in the same housing, you won’t need a separate tuner during quick soundchecks.

Body Shape and Tonewoods for a Balanced Voice

Smaller than a dreadnought, the Grand Concert shape is easy to hold, delivering a focused, articulate response for every note. A spruce top brings crisp highs and solid fundamentals, while sapele back and sides add warmth with a gentle midrange emphasis. The open-pore finish keeps the top light and resonant.

• Top: Spruce — bright, dynamic response with strong projection
• Players appreciate the warmth and balance offered by sapele back and sides, which also keep overtones under control for clear articulation.
• Body Type: Grand Concert with cutaway — compact, comfortable, easy upper-fret access

Neck Profile and Fingerboard for Comfortable Playing

A rounded nato neck fits naturally in the left hand, minimizing fatigue on long sessions. The fingerboard, made from black Richlite, stays smooth under shifting humidity and feels silky to the touch, while the 43 mm nut width allows fingerstyle or strumming without crowding your hand. With twenty frets available and an adjustable truss rod, the player can customize the action as needed.

• Neck: Nato, rounded profile — stable, comfortable feel
• Fingerboard: Black Richlite — smooth, durable playing surface
• Nut Width: 43 mm — comfortable for strumming and fingerstyle
• At 650 mm, the scale length gives familiar string tension for most players.

Onboard Electronics and Hardware for Stage and Studio

The undersaddle pickup directly captures string vibrations, delivering a clear signal to the 3-band EQ preamp. Players can shape bass, mids, treble, and presence to fit any acoustic environment. An integrated tuner keeps the instrument ready between songs, and the system operates from a single 9V battery. Chrome die-cast tuners with a rosewood bridge provide stable tuning, while phosphor bronze strings supply the warmth and clarity expected from a quality spruce-top.

• Preamp: 3-band EQ with built-in tuner — full tonal shaping on stage
• Shape your sound precisely with controls for Presence, Volume, Bass, Middle, and Treble
• Tuners: Chrome die-cast — stable tuning across sets
• Strings: Phosphor Bronze .011–.052 — warm, articulate acoustic voice

Who the PGC-100E Black Is Built For

Pasadena PGC-100E Black fits beginner and intermediate players seeking a single guitar that’s equally suited for practice, recording, and performing. Its compact body appeals to younger musicians or adults who find dreadnoughts cumbersome. For songwriters, the pickup and EQ make plugging in to a PA or acoustic amp simple, allowing a quick, tailored stage sound. Those moving up from an acoustic will value the integrated tuner, lead-friendly cutaway, and clear, intuitive controls.
