Auden Emily Rose Maple Fullbody

The Auden Maple Series Emily Rose is a real beauty in both the looks and sound department. A solid AA Spruce top has been paired with solid 5A Exhibition Grade Flame Maple for the band and sides. The slightly deeper body allows the guitar to resonate with a volume and presence not usually heard in guitars of this size. The Flamed Mahogany neck is joined to the body at the 12th fret. This moves the bridge back in to the sweet spot of the soundboard. Notes ring out with a bell like clarity with plenty of resonance and volume. The fingerboard is made from Ebony and the fretwork is immaculate, while a wider 45mm nut facilitates more intricate playing styles. Subtle Maple and Ebony binding results in an understated, classy look, while the gloss natural finish is applied to the whole instrument. The overall fit and finish is very impressive, shaming guitars in significantly higher price brackets.

The Auden Emily Rose Maple Fullbody is powered by the Brad Clark Supernatural Pre-amp, an all-new system has left us highly impressed here at Merchant City Music. The Supernatural comprises two sensors: 1) Super Discrete Power bridge sensor (SDP) and 2) the Supernatural face sensor (FS). These are inputted into a programmable preamplifier. The sounds are “tuned” by professional musicians and pre-stored into the chip. There are four presets of sounds to suit most guitars, scenarios and styles. This system claims to provide unprecedented realism and flexibility, and, having experienced it, we’d have to agree! It is also incredibly lightweight, and does not compromise the guitar’s acoustic performance.

In terms of hardware, high quality Swiss Schertler tuners have been fitted, while the bone nut and saddle eke every ounce of tone from the strings. The Auden Emily Rose Maple Fullbody 12 fret parlour comes presented in a very high quality Auden hard case.
