of getting the strings a little bit closer to the fretboard so you don't have to press as hard. >> mm-hmm. [ chords playing ] ooh. >> we made the neck a little bit narrower so it's easier to get your hand around. and we came up with this special coating that we put on the strings to make them just a little more gentle on your fingertips. so, all of these things are designed to get you started. >> so, whether you're a beginning or you're a pro, you've literally thought of everything for this guitar. >> absolutely. i mean, that's the thing. if you've been playing before, you're gonna love this guitar. i play one of these guitars myself. you're absolutely gonna love it. if you've never played, you're gonna love it, too, because it's built for you. it's built for you to feel like you know how to do it. when you pick it up, this guitar should feel like a long-lost friend. >> and it will. and what's nice is, the very first day you get your guitar home -- you open the beautiful package -- 'cause you're receiving 50 pieces -- is you're going to be able to play a song the very first day you start.

and that's the keith urban difference. incredible.
