The Mitchell Launch D100 Dreadnought acoustic guitar offers big sound and an inspiring playing experience at an accessible price. Built with an all-basswood body and finished in smooth satin, it produces a warm, balanced tone that projects easily in any setting. Forward-shifted scalloped X-bracing gives the top greater resonance and depth, while high-ratio tuners keep everything locked in tune. Add in Mitchell’s Comfort-Fit neck profile and a purpleheart bridge, and you get a guitar that's as inviting for beginners as it is dependable for more experienced players. Whether it’s your first chord or your hundredth gig, the D100 is ready to deliver.
Basswood Body for Warm, Balanced Tone
The D100’s dreadnought body is built entirely from basswood, giving it a warm, approachable sound that’s instantly satisfying. Lows are round and supportive, mids are focused and clear and the highs sparkle without ever sounding harsh. This balance makes the D100 versatile enough for strumming chords, fingerpicking melodies or accompanying vocals. The full-size dreadnought shape ensures plenty of projection, making it a great choice for singalongs, open mics or just filling your living room with sound. Paired with its satin finish, the body resonates freely, letting the natural character of the basswood shine through.
Forward-Shifted X-Bracing for Bigger Sound
Most entry-level acoustics cut corners on internal design, but the D100 includes forward-shifted scalloped X-bracing—a feature usually found on higher-tier guitars. By moving the bracing closer to the soundhole and carefully carving its shape, Mitchell gives the top more flexibility to vibrate. The result is deeper bass response, enhanced resonance and an overall livelier feel under your fingers. Whether you’re strumming with a pick or playing with a lighter touch, the bracing helps the D100 deliver a dynamic, room-filling sound that feels inspiring from the very first chord.
Comfort-Fit Okoume Neck and Smooth HPL Fingerboard
An enjoyable playing experience starts with a neck that feels good in the hands, and Mitchell designed the D100’s okoume neck with a Comfort-Fit C-shaped profile that encourages smooth, natural movement up and down the scale. Its satin finish keeps your fretting hand moving fluidly, even during longer practice sessions. The HPL fingerboard is shaped to a friendly 12.5" radius, offering just the right curve for both chords and single-note runs. Offset pearloid dot inlays not only look stylish, but also make it easier to find your way around the fingerboard. From practice sessions to the stage, the D100 delivers effortless playability at every turn.
Reliable Mitchell Hardware Keeps You in Tune
No one wants to spend more time tuning than playing, so Mitchell equipped the D100 with sealed-gear chrome tuners featuring an 18:1 ratio for precise, smooth adjustments. A compensated synthetic bone saddle and matching nut improve intonation and sustain, giving your chords a cleaner, more accurate ring. The purpleheart bridge is both sturdy and attractive, helping transfer vibrations efficiently from strings to body. Together, these details give you an instrument that stays in tune longer, sounds more consistent and is ready whenever inspiration strikes.
A Timeless Dreadnought for Players of All Levels
With its beginner-friendly price and a feature set that punches well above its weight class, the Mitchell Launch D100 Dreadnought acoustic guitar is an instrument built to grow with you. It’s approachable enough for new players, but player-focused upgrades like forward-shifted X-bracing and high-ratio tuners make this a guitar you can count on for years to come. Whether you’re practicing at home, performing at an open mic or just jamming with friends, the D100 brings dependable sound and playability to every moment. More than an entry-level instrument, it’s a guitar designed to stay with you well beyond your first steps in music.
