A very special Cole Clark for the player wanting an ornate acoustic with great tone both acoustically and amped up. Comes with original hardshell case. 

European Maple or Sycamore Maple: Acer Pseudoplantanus

This is a sustainable timber that originates from Europe and is an invasive species in the hills around Melbourne close to the factory. It also happens to be an excellent Tonewood. It has been used for violin making in Europe for centuries. The 18th century, the Italian violin makers used this species extensively. It has a lower density than US Rock Maple which tends to lack low-mids and low frequencies. It has a big balanced sound with good highs, mids and lows. It is a spectacular top timber when spalted. It is a big full sound and great amplified.
