The Redwood is plantation grown and sustainably harvested from the Otway Ranges in Victoria, the Myrtle from our longstanding supplier in Tasmania, who also provides us with the timber to build the \u003cb\u003eJoe Robinson Signature\u003c\/b\u003e model.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin-bottom: 0in; line-height: normal;\" class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: 'Arial',sans-serif; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-font-kerning: 0pt; mso-ligatures: none;\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin-bottom: 0in; line-height: normal;\" class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: 'Arial',sans-serif; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-font-kerning: 0pt; mso-ligatures: none;\"\u003eTonally, Redwood can be compared to Western Red Cedar, but there is a stronger treble presence and dynamic response than typically found in Cedar. Tasmanian Myrtle (or Tassie Myrtle as we Aussies call it) has a smooth, Maple-like tone, and when combined with Redwood seems to add a little extra warmth and sustain to the overall tone of the instrument.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin-bottom: 0in; line-height: normal;\" class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: 'Arial',sans-serif; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-font-kerning: 0pt; mso-ligatures: none;\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin-bottom: 0in; line-height: normal;\" class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: 'Arial',sans-serif; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-font-kerning: 0pt; mso-ligatures: none;\"\u003eThe result is intriguing. The tone coming from these guitars is complex. All the frequencies we expect are present, but there is something more going on as well. The blend of overtones and the dynamic response to slight variations in playing technique, offer new possibilities to the player. This is a guitar that is hard to put down.”\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin-bottom: 0in; line-height: normal;\" class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: 'Arial',sans-serif; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-font-kerning: 0pt; mso-ligatures: none;\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe Maton AP5-Pro Electronics\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn its 5th generation, the AP5 Pro features an internal Microphone and 6-Piezo bridge input, with controls that allow for blending of both microphone and piezo levels prior to sending the actively combined signals through the well engineered pre-amp.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe highly selective cardioid microphone system allows for much greater microphone level before feedback in live environments. This upgraded AP5-Pro microphone is direct mounted to the pre-amp casing with an adjustable arm, which permits easy final tweaking of microphone position to suit the individual artist's playing style.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUsing the ‘Sweep-able Mid’ controls. Mid-range is sweep-able from 600Hz to 2.4kHz and can be cut or boosted within this range. As a general rule we start out with all settings ‘flat’ then alter them to achieve the desired tone \u0026amp; presence based on the venue or recording environment. For example, an open, natural sound can be achieved by setting the frequency control at 1.4khz and the boost\/cut control at 5db. Alternatively, for a ‘thick’ lead sound boost your Mid's by 5db and set the frequency dial at 1.7kh.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eSpecifications:\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"tab-pane fade active in\" id=\"tab1\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"row marginnone\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"col-md-6\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"speclistdiv\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"tab-pane fade active in\" id=\"tab1\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"row marginnone\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"col-md-6\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"speclistdiv\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"tab-pane fade active in\" id=\"tab1\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"row marginnone\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"col-md-6\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"speclistdiv\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"tab-pane fade active in\" id=\"tab1\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"row marginnone\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"col-md-6\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"speclistdiv\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"tab-pane fade active in\" id=\"tab1\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"row marginnone\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"col-md-6\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"speclistdiv\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"tab1\" class=\"tab-pane fade active in\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"row marginnone\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"col-md-6\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"speclistdiv\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"col-md-6\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"speclistdiv\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"tab-pane fade active in\" id=\"tab1\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"row marginnone\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"col-md-6\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"speclistdiv\"\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eModel:\u003c\/strong\u003e Redwood Series Dreadnought Cutaway\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBody Shape:\u003c\/strong\u003e Maton Slope Shoulder Dreadnought\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSound Board:\u003c\/strong\u003e Redwood\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBack and Sides:\u003c\/strong\u003e Tasmanian Myrtle\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSound Hole Diameter:\u003c\/strong\u003e 100 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNeck:\u003c\/strong\u003e Queensland Maple\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFingerboard and Bridge:\u003c\/strong\u003e Streaky Ebony\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBracing:\u003c\/strong\u003e Scalloped Maton X\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSound Hole Rosette:\u003c\/strong\u003e 5 Ply Violin Purfling B\/W\/B\/W\/B\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBinding:\u003c\/strong\u003e Black ABS with Violin Purfling\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eScale Length:\u003c\/strong\u003e 25.5\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHeadstock Veneer:\u003c\/strong\u003e Tasmanian Myrtle\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFretwire:\u003c\/strong\u003e Jescar FW43080\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Frets:\u003c\/strong\u003e 21\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFretboard Radius:\u003c\/strong\u003e 12\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNut Width:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cspan style=\"mso-spacerun: yes;\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eNearly 1-3\/4” (1.736\")\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e14th Fret Width:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2.165\" - 2 11\/64\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFingerboard Inlays:\u003c\/strong\u003e 6mm Mother of Pearl Dots\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBack and Sides Finish:\u003c\/strong\u003e Satin Nitrocellulose Natural\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTop Finish:\u003c\/strong\u003e Satin Nitrocellulose Natural\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBridge Pins:\u003c\/strong\u003e Ivory ABS\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMachine Heads:\u003c\/strong\u003e Chrome Grover Rotomatic\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePick Guard:\u003c\/strong\u003e Black\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnd Pin Strap:\u003c\/strong\u003e Chrome\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNut and Saddle:\u003c\/strong\u003e Bone\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCase:\u003c\/strong\u003e Standard Maton Hardshell Case\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePickup:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2-Channel AP5 PRO Electronics, with Internal Mic\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 12.0pt;
