,Brad Clark ,has to say about his designs:
Fat Lady
Series Dreadnaught Acoustic Guitars
"At Cole
Clark Guitars, we’ve applied a new understanding to an age old art.
Like you, we appreciate the sound and feel of a great steel string
guitar, one that reflects and projects the emotion you put into
your music.
Great
guitars require great tone woods, and we select our timbers with
care. Even our most basic model acoustic is made from all solid
timbers. Our patented manufacturing method applies the finest of
control to each instrument we make, so that every instrument can be
loud and lively and subtle and soft.
The Cole
Clark Fat Lady is a truly awesome sounding instrument. It whispers,
it yells and it sings, and you know that your search for the
perfect acoustic guitar isn’t over... ‘til the Fat Lady
sings!
At Cole
Clark Guitars we precision manufacture guitars to provide the
optimum in sound quality and playability. The fact that we use
modern technology should not be mistaken for a lack of respect for
past methods. Acoustic guitar making remained relatively unchanged
from the mid 1850’s Martin “X” braced design until now.
The
original “X” was modified in the early 20th century to accommodate
steel strings, and the “14 frets clear of the body” design to give
greater fret access arrived just prior to 1930. From then, not much
changed. There have been a few excursions into alternate materials,
“space age” laminates, odd shapes etc., but mostly acoustic steel
string guitars have been made the same way for a long time. Players
agree that timber is the material that sounds best, and timber is
our medium.
We
combine the benefits of an integral neck heel with an accurately
tuned face and back for exceptional clarity and sustain. The
integral neck heel, while held in high esteem, has always been
difficult to produce well, which is why most manufacturers opt for
the more accessible but less efficient dovetail joint, screws or
dowels, all of which are more at home in the furniture industry.
Our ability to accurately make the integral neck heel enables us to
manufacture with incredibly tight tolerances and this allows
accurate assembly of our instruments.
The
violin makers of history understood the necessity of tuning the
vibrating plates of an instrument ( the top and the back ). We
carve our tops and backs to achieve the best possible sound, using
CNC router technology for extreme accuracy. The results are
instruments which perform like no others."
Angel
Series Smaller Body acoustic/electrics
The Cole
Clark Angel is the most recent addition to their acoustic guitar
range. The Angel has full scale length, with a smaller and
more compact body than the Fat Lady range.
We can now
supply Cole Clark acoustics in the genuine moulded hard shell case
for an extra $139.
These are our best
sellers. Other timbers, and gloss finishes are available as special
order. Call us to discuss.
