The Maritime SWS is Seagull's solid-wood series, aimed at players stepping up from the brand's core models into a Canadian-built instrument with more premium appointments.
Watch
Why it matters
Seagull has been building in Quebec since the early 1980s, and the Maritime SWS sits above the entry S6 line without reaching the Artist and Performer tiers on price. Godin publishes its own pricing, which makes Seagull easier to research than many small-shop alternatives, and the instruments are widely distributed across North America. Solid-wood construction and factory electronics are the usual reasons buyers move up to this tier.
Note
Solid-rosewood/spruce upgrades of the S platform.
