Atkin White Rice Dreadnought Aged
Deze zeer speciale gitaar uit de historische serie is een liefdevolle recreatie van de beruchte D28 van Tony Rice, een gitaar die voorheen eigendom was van Clarence White, vandaar de naam - The White Rice! Met zijn direct herkenbare vergrote klankgat en overhangende toets, wordt de originele gitaar algemeen aanvaard als een van de best klinkende D28's die er bestaat. We wilden een compromisloze Dreadnought bouwen die deze uitzonderlijke gitaar en zijn legendarische eigenaren zou eren.
Terwijl het 'normale' Sitka sparren bovenblad en Oost-Indische palissander dreadnought veel kracht, sustain en projectie bevat, is deze gitaar iets anders. Mede dankzij het extra grote klankgat, dat meer lucht in en uit de gitaar laat, beschikt The White Rice over een ongelooflijke kracht - in de woorden van Alister: "ze klinkt als een kanon!", met een openheid en resonantie die uniek is. Deze Atkin is perfect afgewerkt tot in elk detail, van de 45 mm brede kam tot de gedetailleerde verouderde afwerking, en is niet alleen het ultieme eerbetoon aan Clarence White en Tony Rice, maar misschien wel de ultieme Dreadnought.
This very special Historic Series guitar is a loving recreation of Tony Rice’s infamous D28, a guitar previously owned by Clarence White, hence its name – The White Rice! With its instantly recognisable enlarged soundhole and overhanging fretboard, the original guitar is generally agreed to be one of the best sounding D28s in existence. We set out to build a no-compromise Dreadnought that would honour this exceptional guitar and its legendary owners.
While the 'regular' Sitka spruce and East Indian rosewood Dreadnought packs plenty of power, sustain and projection, this guitar is something else. Thanks in part to the oversized soundhole, which lets more air in and out of the guitar, The White Rice combines incredible power – in Alister’s words, “it sounds like a cannon!” – with an openness and resonance that is unique. Accurate in every detail, from the 45mm nut to the detailed custom relic finish, this is not just the ultimate White/Rice tribute but, perhaps, the ultimate Dreadnought.
