McIlroy A66 Claro Walnut
Het A-model is de middelgrote jumbo van McIlroy, ook wel bekend als een gitaar van auditoriumformaat. Dit is het meest populaire formaat van het merk en uiterst comfortabel om te spelen, terwijl hij een heldere, luchtige klank produceert met een enorm volume.
Zoals altijd bij McIlroy is de bouw- en geluidkwaliteit van het allerhoogste niveau. Niet alleen het hout is bijzonder fraai maar ook de verfijnde klank is volledig in evenwicht met het uiterlijk. Het sparren bovenblad wordt vergezeld door een klankkast van prachtig gevlamd Claro walnotenhout, waarbij de ebben binding en de purfling van esdoorn, pau ferro en palissander voor de detaillering zorgen. De abalone rozet is de kers op de taart!
De vijfdelige hals bestaat uit mahonie, esdoorn en walnoot, en is voorzien van een ebben toets en kopplaat. Ook hier spreekt de fabuleuze afwerking tot de verbeelding; de esdoorn purfling is zichtbaar op de toets en de kop, terwijl de 12e fret gesierd wordt door een fraaie Keltische inleg van abalone.
De gitaar wordt geleverd in een koffer van Hiscox.
The A model is McIlroy's mid-sized jumbo, also known as an auditorium-sized guitar. It's the brand's most popular format and extremely comfortable to play, producing a bright, airy tone with huge volume.
As always with McIlroy, the build and sound quality is top notch. Not only the wood is particularly beautiful, but also the refined sound is completely in balance with the appearance. The spruce top is accompanied by a beautifully figured Claro Walnut back and sides, with the ebony binding and the purfling of maple, pau ferro and rosewood providing the detailing. The rosette consists of rosewood, maple and Paua abalone.
The five-piece neck is made of mahogany, maple and walnut, and features an ebony fingerboard and headstock overlay. Here, too, the fabulous finish appeals to the imagination; the maple purfling is visible on the fingerboard and headstock, while the 12th fret is adorned with a beautiful Celtic abalone inlay.
The guitar comes in a Hiscox hardshell case.
