Awesome Adirondack Action

To cop this vintage-style tone, we asked the folks at Martin to equip these Martins with Adirondack spruce tops and bracing. It's no secret that we love Adirondack spruce to an unhealthy degree here at Wildwood, so let's dive into the reasons for our obsession with this stellar tonewood.

Awesome Adirondack Action

To cop this vintage-style tone, we asked the folks at Martin to equip these Martins with Adirondack spruce tops and bracing. It's no secret that we love Adirondack spruce to an unhealthy degree here at Wildwood, so let's dive into the reasons for our obsession with this stellar tonewood. Adirondack spruce produces a plethora of pleasing timbres. From the get-go, it gives the guitar a woody, percussive attack with piano-like roundness and an exceptionally wide dynamic range. You can coax plenty of different sounds out of a guitar with an Adirondack top simply by altering your right-hand technique, so it really facilitates expressive playing! Part of the reason for this is the otherworldly amount of headroom that Adirondack spruce offers. Every acoustic guitar's top has a point at which it cannot get any louder. Once you hit that point, the top is "maxed-out" and playing harder yields more compression rather than more volume. For guitars with Adirondack tops, that point is much, much higher than normal. So, you can really hit hard with your right hand without losing any clarity. Think of it like this: if electric guitar players prize amps that can "go to eleven," acoustic guitarists prize Adirondack spruce because it can go to quadruple-fortissimo. Nevertheless, it is still quite expressive and open-sounding at lower volumes.

Feel the Joy

We know that these Custom Shop 000-28s will prove themselves to be steadfast companions on your acoustic adventures, and we cannot wait to see how they inspire you along the way.
