Always have. Here’s why: on a normal guitar when you strum a G chord you hear the wash of the chord tones. On the wider neck 12-fret Martin when you strum the same chord your hear the bell-like tones of the notes making up the chord. The clarity can be breath taking. It was those silver and golden bell-like tones merged with power and volume I was hoping for when thinking about the WoodSongs QUAD 28s.\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eThe 0000 body size is part of the guitar’s power. Bigger than the 000 and slightly smaller than a dreadnought it gives the best of both worlds. On the larger guitars like a D-35, the instrument sounds awesome in the room but every sound man on the planet has to EQ the low end down when you stand onstage. That alters the sound of the instrument dramatically, no matter what. The 000 size sounds perfect but the smaller body size makes you look like Gigantor. Thus, the slightly larger 0000-28s body of the WoodSongs QUAD. The bass strings have crisp power and the high strings have the silvery bell tones of a beautiful instrument.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eAnd the WoodSongs QUAD has natural volume and a long, clean sustain. It’s a finger picking cannon, a pro instrument for a serious artist and song writer. Take a visit to Willcutt Guitar Shoppe, sit yourself down in a quiet room and play one for yourself. This is truly the finest guitar I’ve ever heard and worth the effort. A guitar like this is an investment in yourself and your music. Nothing can make a good song and a good artist sound better than a magnificent instrument like the WoodSongs QUAD 28s.”\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cem\u003eMichael Johnathon \u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eFolksinger - SongFarmer\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eThe bracing pattern in this guitar is completely custom. It is very similar to the Norman Blake model which also had the 000\/OM 14F body with a 12F neck. Basically Martin took the intersection point of the X braces and pushed it back. This moves the sound hole on the top to the correct position that will allow the extended fingerboard of the 12F neck to line up correctly with the rosette. Essentially a modified rear-shifted pattern on a 000-OM body. This is one of the main ingredients to the mesmerizing tone of these instruments.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/willcuttguitars.com\/pages\/woodsongs\"\u003eSEE WHAT THE PROS HAVE TO SAY\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConstruction: Standard; Mahogany Blocks\/Dovetail Neck Joint\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBody Size: 0000-14 Fret Body \/ 12 Fret Neck\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTop: Sitka Spruce\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTop Braces: Adirondack \/ Scalloped 1\/4\" \/ Golden Era\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBracing Pattern: Custom\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTop Binding: Grained Ivoroid\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTop Inlay: Bold Herringbone\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRosette: Style 28\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePickguard: Tortoise\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBack: Solid East Indian Rosewood\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePurfling: HD Zig-Zag\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBack Binding: Grained Ivoroid\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSides: Solid East Indian Rosewood\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEndpiece: Grained Ivoroid\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBlock: Solid Genuine Mahogany\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNeck: Genuine Mahogany - 12\/4\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNeck Shape: Mod V\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHeadstock: Slotted \/ Square Slots \/ 6 String \/ Diamond\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNut: Bone\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHeadplate: Solid East Indian Rosewood\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHeadplate Pearl: CFM Logo \/ Torch Inlay - Select Abalone\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTuning Machines: Waverly Brass w\/ Small Ivoroid Buttons\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFingerboard: Black Ebony\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRadius: 16\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eScale Length: 24.9\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWidth at Nut: 1 3\/4\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWidth at 12 Fret: 2 1\/4\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePearl Inlay: 1\/8\" MOP dots at 5th and 7th Frets\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAdditional Fingerboard Inlay: \"Woodsongs\" inlaid at 9th Fret (MOP)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFinish Body: Gloss\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFinish Neck: Satin\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBridge: Black Ebony\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStyle: Vintage Belly- Drop In Long Saddle\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eString Spacing: 2 5\/16\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSaddle: Bone\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBridge Pins: Bone with Black Dots\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEnd Pin: Bone w\/ Black Dot\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStrings: MSP7100\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCase: 570 Cabernet\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Reemes Music","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53838901608767,"sku":"RMC-MUS-G51857519","price":3500.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0990\/7535\/9039\/files\/1875706-4.jpg?v=1782094853","url":"https:\/\/www.reemesmusic.com\/products\/martin-custom-shop-first-edition-woodsongs-0000-12-fret-706","provider":"Reemes Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
