Cole Clark FL1E-12-BM Acoustic Elec 12 String
Cole Clark Guitars combine classical construction with innovative design, sustainably sourced woods and the world’s most natural sounding pickup to produce a stronger, lighter, unique instrument for the modern acoustic player.
UNIQUE CONSTRUCTION
Cole Clark acoustic guitars are the only main stream acoustic steel string to use a Spanish heel or integral neck construction. This means the neck is glued to the face along with the sides and back, so the neck is one piece all the way to the sound hole. On other guitars, the body is made, then the neck is attached, mostly with a bolt or dove tail join. The integral neck construction is essential for our advanced pickup technology and gives our guitars a unique character. Cole Clark guitars also have carved tops and backs and uses a ridge system to join the sides to the top and back instead of kerfing.
NATURAL PICKUP
The Cole Clark 3 way pickup system is the most acoustic sounding pickup available.
Aimed at finding a more natural tone when amplified and eliminating piezo ‘quack’, our pickup comprises 3 different elements that only hear frequencies they’re best equipped to handle. This is done using a combination of 6 loaded piezos under the saddle for bottom end, a face sensor that can be blended in to hear frequencies in the mid to high range (350hz maximum crossover) and a condenser microphone shelved to hear only extreme highs. For a detailed description of our pre-amp, check out our pickups page.
