Overview
The Cole Clark FL 2 Series Tasmanian Blackwood Acoustic-Electric Guitar combines classical construction with innovative design and manufacturing techniques to produce a lighter, stronger, unique guitar with a natural amplified sound.
Aimed at finding a more natural tone when amplified and eliminating piezo "quack," our pickups comprise different elements that only hear certain frequencies which they're best equipped to handle. This is done using a combination of 6 loaded piezos under the saddle for bottom end, a face sensor that can be blended in to hear frequencies in the mid to high range (350 Hz maximum crossover) and a condenser microphone shelved to hear only extreme highs.
Bunya Top: This… read more native sustainable Australian tone wood sourced from Queensland is used in over half of Cole Clark's guitars.

- Janka Hardness 2.3

Unique Construction
Cole Clark steel string acoustic guitars are the only main stream acoustic to use a Spanish heel or integral neck construction. This means the neck is glued to the face along with the sides and the back so the neck is one piece all the way to the sound hole. On other guitars, the body is made then the neck attached, mostly with a bolt or dove tail join. Due to our method, the sound is unique. Cole Clark also has a carved top and back and uses a ridge system to join the sides to the top and back instead of kerfing.- Natural Pickup
The Cole Clark patented pickup system is the most acoustic sounding pickup available.Aimed at finding a more natural tone when amplified and eliminating piezo "quack," our pickups comprise different elements that only hear certain frequencies which they're best equipped to handle. This is done using a combination of 6 loaded piezos under the saddle for bottom end, a face sensor that can be blended in to hear frequencies in the mid to high range (350 Hz maximum crossover) and a condenser microphone shelved to hear only extreme highs.
