2015 Greenfield G2, Indian Rosewood/European Spruce
We've got a new miracle child in the shop today, folks: a 2015 Greenfield G2. Hot off the presses, this beastly fierce guitar is already an old hand belting out tunes with Greenfield's trademark sound: rich and resounding, huge and vocal. Featuring a gorgeously dark set of Indian Rosewood for the back, sides, and headstock backplate, and a creamy European Spruce top, the G2 has a dark and expressive fundamental with otherworldly sustain.Trebles which shimmer like sunlight over water, a low E string muscular and confident, a setup like glass for effortless playability--these are industry standards in Michael Greenfield's work, and this G2 has got them all in spades. With the addition of an arm rest bevel, Florentine cutaway, and heel block "swoop," this G2 is even easier to play, and responds beautifully to both an aggressive or delicate attack. It excels in DADGAD, where the depth and scope of the tuning work wonders on the European Spruce top, or in Standard, where the low-end develops an articulate snap. Exhibiting excellent pianistic seperation for fingerstyle, and great note presence and attack for flatpicked passages, there's little this G2 can't accomplish. Sealed in an Accord flight case for reliable protection, you won't ever have to worry about the eggs cracking in this carton.
Michael's work never fails to excite! This is an excellent G2 to add to our selection of other Greenfields, and this one's flawless balance makes it fierce competition for a lot of our stock. I especially love Michael's attention to detail, from the wagon wheel back bracing and carved neck block to the Paua Abalone and Spalted Wood rosette. - Paul Heumiller
