VOTED THE UK'S BEST ACOUSTIC GUITAR 2015
Englemann Spruce / British Rippled Sycamore
(45mm Nut, 14 Fret Join)
Rippled Sycamore is an indigenous wood from the UK and is the British relative of the broad leaf maple species frequently found in North America and famously used in guitar building.
When matched to high grade Engelmann Spruce, the tonal properties are akin to maple with a relatively dry and crisp tone that offers both power and clarity. The beauty of this British wood is complemented by a luxurious, light, honey-tone stain and solid Rosewood binding, back strip and end strip.
As with all solid-wood instruments, we would strongly recommend the continual use of a humidity control system when your guitar is not in use.
