Built from Australian Blackwood, which is a very close cousin to Koa and can vary from dark to light in colour and straight grained to figured. In the tradition of guitars made from Koa tops, backs and sides in the USA for over 100 years, Cole Clark have introduced a guitar with an Australian Blackwood top, back, sides and headstock but with a Queensland Maple neck, River She Oak fretbaord and bridge. All guitars come with the Cole Clark patented 3 Way pickup system. Most models with River She Oak fretboards are made of 100% sustainable timbers. Includes hard case.
This unique AN Grand Auditorium 2 features a Cole Clark 3-way pickup system with a Humbucker just forward of the bridge.
