| Michael Greenfield describes
this guitar as "over the top". I think that would characterize
every instrument I have ever seen of Michael's! This luthier
does not use 'good' materials or even 'the best'. He only utilizes
the best of the best Master grade tone woods and hardware!
The model G-1 serial number
2332 pictured on this page features a 15 3/8" lower bout, parabolic
Bearclaw Alpine spruce top, hand carved & tapered German spruce
bracing, solid Spanish cedar linings, 120 year old Brazilian
rosewood back & sides, tuned soundbox, ebony body bindings,
Laskin arm & rib rests, abalone & spalted maple rosette,
16" radius ebony fingerboard bound in ebony, 1 3/4" nut width,
special commissioned Larry Robinson inlay, 7-piece carbon graphite
reinforced quilted mahogany neck, bone nut & saddle and
gold plated Waverly tuners with ebony buttons. This guitar is supplied
with a custom Deluxe Calton flight case.
This is one of those
new instruments that, right from the start, exhibits an immediate response,
an open voice and a sensitivity to even the lightest right hand attack.
As this guitar matures I would envision the midrange developing an
even richer glow, but I can't imagine that it is possible to get
any more response out of a single guitar!!! |
