Key timber materials types :
Top : Solid Sitka Spruce
Back / side : Wild Cherry or the scientific name : Prunus Avium which are native in European countries, West Asia and North America. The hard, pinkist brown woods are valued in cabinetry and for music instruments. The grains patterns typically between fine to medium texture with close grain. The grain is usually straight or slightly wavy. In this shipment, we are lucky to get more wavy & some curly with contrast grains than in the past shipments.
The spruce & wild cherry combination with white bindings combination makes this model stunning in both appearance and sound. There is no abalone, no mother white pearl in this model but a very tidy, simple and elegant natural beauty guitar in custom satin finish.
History of Norman Guitars:
The first Norman guitars were produced in the early 1970's by Godin guitars factories. In the last 40+ years, it is really a time-tested Norman's reputation for superb quality and excellent value has grown in a grassroots, word-of-mouth kind of way amongst musicians which has earned Norman guitars the distinction of ‘Canada's guitar'. This quiet, testimonial type of marketing has made it possible for us to invest back into the guitars themselves, creating one of the most technically sophisticated guitar building facilities in the world. Our state-of-the-art technology enables us to bring precision and consistency to our guitar crafting heritage which uses premium tonewoods to create truly world class guitars that carry the Norman name.
