Freshman Acoustic Guitars praised in review
Posted on 16 Nov 2009 16:42 to category : Instruments News
Freshman is well known for manufacturing acoustic guitars with good build quality and great playability.
Consistently delivering well setup guitars not only creates a good reputation, but it also creates high expectations for guitars across the Freshman range.
It goes without saying that when it comes to top end electro-acoustics and 12-string guitars, Freshman have a lot to live up to.
This month, Acoustic Magazine has been taking a look at two models within the top-end of the Freshman range – the Grand Auditorium FA400GAC, and the FA400DCE12/S.
These guitars have a very similar build which immediately impressed Acoustic Magazine's reviewer.
The high standard of wood used in these guitars, not only helps to create a good feel, but also creates a great tone.
Acoustic Magazine noted that the "solid AAA-graded Engelmann shimmering spruce top, which is key in getting their sound nice and bright."
Acoustic Magazine's reviewer was particularly keen on the metallic timbre of the FA400GAC which is "well suited to stomping riffs and desperation blues."
Strong build quality, high standard materials, impressive tones and good playability place these two models right at the top of your Christmas list if you're hunting for a high-end acoustic guitar.
"If you've had the misfortune to have missed out on playing one, then these two models in particular could be your chance to find a new stripped-down acoustic rig".
Gear4music have recently become a regional specialist of Freshman guitars, and have over 40 different models available including acoustic and electro-acoustic guitars.
As Acoustic Magazine's reviewer commented, "There are clearly some common traits among Freshman guitars with very intelligent and experienced minds getting hands-on in the production."
