The Cole Clark Vision: Tradition, Sustainability, and Modern Sound Capture
Designed for demanding recording, this Cole Clark "Studio Recording" combines traditional luthiery with innovative choices. The solid blackwood sourced from responsible suppliers and the internally carved plates create a distinctive sonic identity, while the PG3 electronics are a benchmark for capturing the guitar as it truly sounds, without artifice.
Who Is This Guitar For?
Ideal for the intermediate to expert guitarist seeking a versatile and reliable electro-acoustic folk guitar. The Grand Auditorium shape suits pop, folk, blues, fingerstyle styles and also complements vocals very well. The cutaway facilitates arrangements on the upper neck and melodic parts.
Sound Characteristics
The solid blackwood offers a tonal palette close to koa: singing mids, precise highs, and controlled lows. The Grand Auditorium shape ensures a well-balanced spectrum and good projection. The fact that the top and back are carved from the inside provides a quick response, precise attack, and ample sustain. The Tusq nuts stabilize intonation and enhance vibration transmission, while the nitro finish allows the body to "breathe." Plugged in, the PG3 3-way electronics enable fine mixing of the sources to recover the natural acoustic grain, whether directly into a console or through a pedalboard.
