Woodsong Worship
Curly Oregon Myrtle
Redwood
Body: Woodsong Worship 14-fret
Woods: 25-year-old seasoned California Redwood top, master grade Curly Oregon Myrtle back and sides, hand-selected Honduran Mahogany neck.
Fine stripe Macassar Ebony fretboard, binding, end graft, and heel cap. African Blackwood bridge, Ziricote headplate.
Construction Details: The Woodsong body shape is a Randy Reynolds design. Beautifully shaped with elegant shoulders, this OM sized guitar has the perfect balance in size and acoustic power. Construction with hot hide glue and fish glue. Braced with Swiss Moon Spruce. The neck is well seasoned Honduran Mahogany, which was hand-selected for its light weight and resonance. The fine stripe Macassar Ebony, used on all the appointments, has become a rare find in recent years. Gold mother of pearl is used for the wheat pattern rosette, offset fretboard markers, and side markers. Unslotted bone pins with shell dots, highly polished water buffalo bone nut and saddle.
The bridge and bridge plate are slotted for long-term life and resistance to string ball wear. The bridge plate is a radius laminate of Eastern Hard Maple and Brazilian Rosewood, ensuring a long lasting plate that helps maintain the top radius. Finished in no longer available McFadden nitrocellulose lacquer.
Highly polished stainless steel frets will require little to no fretwork in this guitar’s lifetime. The frets are set in a faux-bound fretboard, hiding the tangs. An LR Baggs Anthem Tru-Mic system is installed, providing both life-like acoustic pickup and a piezo mic to support stage work where feedback may be an issue. Tuning machines are German Schertlers. The Worship model includes the dove of peace inlaid at the 19th fret.
A very well balanced guitar, weighing 4 lbs 6oz with the Anthem sound system. This Woodsong is resonant and powerful with bright trebles, lush mid tone, and strong bass notes.
Notes: Reynolds neck C-block construction with UTBs glued and pinned to the C-block for added upper bout rigidity. Includes a TKL Concept 2.9 hard case.
