All-solid Camphor Laurel construction defines this Studio Grand Auditorium, pairing a responsive Australian-grown tonewood across top, back and sides with an African Mahogany neck. The SAN1EC-CLCL sits in Cole Clark's Studio Series as an accessible entry point to the brand's signature all-Australian timber philosophy, equipped with a cutaway body and the PG3mk2 three-way pickup system for stage and studio use. Rosewood appointments across the bridge and fretboard combine with abalone dot inlays and an inlaid abalone rosette, while Graph Tech Tusq nut and saddle materials ensure consistent tone transfer and tuning stability.
The PG3mk2 pickup system blends a piezo strip under the saddle with two internal face sensors, offering independent control over each element for flexible tonal shaping from pure acoustic resonance through to a more amplified voicing. Scale length measures 25.5 inches with a 12-inch radius fretboard and 44mm nut width, delivering familiar playing geometry across the Grand Auditorium body shape. Factory-fitted Phosphor Bronze strings in 12–53 gauge provide balanced tension and output from the outset. Cole Clark-branded machine heads handle tuning duties, and the poly satin finish maintains a workmanlike aesthetic while protecting the solid timber construction. A heavy-duty grey gig bag ships with the guitar alongside a supplied pickguard.
