The Mitchell Launch D75S starter dreadnought acoustic guitar is the ideal first instrument—a guitar that makes learning feel effortless while delivering authentic tone you’ll enjoy for years to come. Its reduced-size dreadnought body offers a comfortable feel without sacrificing projection, while the short 24" scale length and relaxed headstock angle lower string tension for smoother fretting. The satin-finished basswood body and Comfort-Fit nyatoh neck add to the ultra-inviting feel, and thoughtful details like a pinless bridge and lightweight 18:1 gear-ratio tuners make maintenance simple. Whether you’re starting lessons, teaching yourself at home or looking for a compact travel strummer, the D75S offers the perfect blend of comfort, tone and durability. It’s approachable enough for your first chord, yet built with features that support your growth as your playing progresses.

Scaled-Down Dreadnought With Resonant Basswood Body

The D75S takes the classic dreadnought shape and scales it down for a more approachable playing experience. Its all-basswood body provides a warm, balanced tone with plenty of projection, while traditional X-bracing supports resonance and stability. This combination ensures the guitar doesn’t just feel comfortable to hold—it also produces a sound that’s lively and full across the tonal spectrum. The reduced dimensions make it easier for younger players, smaller adults or those seeking a lighter guitar to handle, but the D75S still delivers the bold presence dreadnoughts are known for, filling the room with authentic acoustic tone.

Short 24" Scale for Reduced String Tension and Easier Fretting

Playability is front and center on the D75S. Its 24" scale length and relaxed 10-degree headstock angle reduce overall string tension, which makes chords easier to press and single notes smoother under the fingers. This design not only eases hand fatigue during longer practice sessions, but also helps beginners build confidence more quickly. Whether you’re strumming open-position chords or working up to barres, the D75S creates a softer feel that encourages longer playing and steady improvement, turning practice into something you’ll look forward to every day.

Smooth Nyatoh Neck and Durable HPL Fingerboard

Mitchell designed the D75S with a sleek nyatoh neck that’s easy on the hands from day one. The Comfort-Fit C-shaped profile sits naturally in your grip, supporting smooth movement up and down the fingerboard. A satin finish enhances the broken-in feel, so the guitar plays comfortably right out of the box. The HPL fingerboard is built for durability, resisting wear while maintaining a smooth, even surface for consistent fretting. Together, these features deliver a neck and fingerboard combination that supports both learning and long-term playing, giving you a guitar that feels inviting every time you pick it up.

Reliable Mitchell Hardware and Beginner-Friendly Design

Practical hardware makes the D75S an ideal first guitar. The pinless bridge simplifies string changes—no tools or tricky pins required—so even new players can handle maintenance with ease. Lightweight chrome open-gear tuners with an 18:1 ratio deliver precise tuning adjustments, keeping your sound locked in session after session. Factory-installed light gauge strings add to the forgiving feel, while details like a compensated nut and saddle support better intonation across the fretboard. These thoughtful touches make the D75S a guitar that’s not just easy to learn on, but also a pleasure to keep playing as your skills improve.
