Australian Craftsmanship & Tone

The Pratley SL Dreadnought delivers outstanding Australian craftsmanship, tone, and value. Featuring a solid Queensland Blue Fig top with layered Blue Fig back and sides, this model combines unique native timber character with accessible pricing.

Designed for Resonance & Playability

Designed and built in Queensland, the SL Series is engineered to maximise tone and playability in a mid-size dreadnought format. The solid top provides resonance and warmth, while Pratley’s modified Di-Pole bracing ensures strength and tonal clarity.

Stage-Ready Electronics

This model comes stage-ready with a Fishman Presys II preamp and Sonicore pickup, offering a natural plugged-in sound with easy onboard EQ and tuner functionality.

Premium Neck & Tonewood Features

The neck is carved from Queensland Maple and paired with a Johnstone River Teak fretboard and bridge for stable performance and a smooth playing feel. A 25.5" scale length and 44mm GraphTech nut offer comfortable string spacing for both fingerstyle and strumming.

Detailing & Finish

Other features include chrome tuners, laser-etched rosette rings, black bridge pins, and a durable satin nitrocellulose burst finish. The guitar is factory-strung with Elixir Phosphor Bronze 12–53 strings and includes a premium Pratley case for protection.

Sustainably Made in Australia

Handmade from sustainable native tonewoods, the Pratley SL Dreadnought is a dependable choice for players seeking Australian tone, aesthetics, and reliability at a mid-range price.
