Sustainable

Cole Clark guitars stand out thanks to their unique appearance, which is mainly due to exceptional types of wood such as Blackwood, Bunya, Queensland Maple, and River She Oak. Behind this unique wood lies a great idea because Cole Clark has been at the forefront of sustainable guitars for years.

Most guitar builders have long held onto 'standard' types of wood such as Sitka Spruce, Mahogany, and Rosewood. But these types of wood are becoming scarcer and scarcer. This is only partly due to the guitar industry because relatively little wood is needed for a guitar: 120 mature spruces could be enough to provide all guitar builders in North America with enough wood for their soundboards. The furniture industry and other wood processors are much bigger culprits that cause some types of wood to be quickly depleted..  

For Cole Clark, it was a reason to look for his guitar wood smarter and much closer to home. With surprising results, because he discovered Satin Box as a good option for a fretboard, as Satin Box is perfect in terms of sound between Rosewood and Ebony and gives a very beautiful, warm, woody sound. Blackwood in the soundbox gives a wonderful punch that is similar to Koa..

Queensland Maple? It has all the goodness of Mahogany. All these types of wood are sustainable alternatives from Australia, which makes the guitars affordable, and thanks to a beautiful satin finish, Cole Clark gives them a lovely natural look where you can still see the tree a bit. With a Cole Clark guitar, you really have something unique in your hands!

Amplified: amazing!

Cole Clark has not forgotten that it is not only about building sustainable guitars: they must also sound good and play well. Especially on stage. Thanks to a unique 3-way system, Cole Clark guitars sound fantastic on stage. This system combines a piezo, a sensor, and a microphone so that your acoustic guitar sounds like an acoustic guitar without having to do a lot of fuss. Just plug in and play! That's why many artists, such as Jack Johnson and Ben Harper, choose a Cole Clark guitar on stage..

 
 


The excellent sound is not only due to modern technology, but precisely to the combination of old and new. Cole Clark, in fact, chooses a 'Spanish' connection between the neck and the soundbox as a standard. That technique is centuries-old and requires more time from the builder because you start with the neck and build the soundbox around it. It is easier and faster to make a neck and soundbox separately and attach them later..

That Spanish method has the greatest advantage that the connection is lighter and more resonant. Add to that a smart construction of the soundbars, and you get a perfectly sounding marriage between classic and super-innovative. And to top it off, these guitars travel in a very cool Tweed case.
