Custom Cole Clark Angel AN2EC-RDBL Redwood and Blackwood

The Cole Clark Angel is an all solid timber grand auditorium, featuring a “Californian” Redwood Sequoia top and Tasmanian Blackwood back and sides. The Redwood is slightly stiffer than Western Red Cedar, a great top for softer players but also gives great resonance for strummers as well as finger pickers. This is a stunning timber that is sourced from Australia from trees planted 150 years ago.

It also features a cutaway and the Cole Clark 3 way pickup system. The 3-way pickup system takes the best of what you have always known about Cole Clark’s amplified acoustic guitars, namely, this 3-way pick-up takes the Cole Clark face-brace technology and adds a condenser microphone which, when combined with their proprietary preamp that sets the crossovers at the optimal frequencies, allows you the option of further clarifying high frequencies when you want to. Like the piezos under the saddle and sensor in the face, the microphone’s range is shelved to only hear the frequencies it’s best equipped to hear and has a pre-determined crossover point, eliminating feedback and muddy tones.

Many of the Redwood tops we see have a stripe of sapwood down the middle of the top; we hand picked this to avoid and it has much nicer even coloring.
