{"product_id":"05-2130000054241","title":"[SN 40706] USED New Orleans Guitars \/ Voodoo Model [05]","description":"We’ve received a unique instrument! The “Voodoo Model” from “New Orleans Guitar,” a handmade guitar brand based in New Orleans, Louisiana, in the southern United States, has arrived!\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e \nNew Orleans Guitar is a handmade guitar brand based in New Orleans, Louisiana, in the southern United States. The company creates professional-quality instruments using the finest materials and exceptional craftsmanship.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e \nA defining feature of the brand is that it goes beyond mere instrument manufacturing to reflect the musical culture, spirit, and diversity of New Orleans in its instruments. Drawing on the rich musical heritage of blues, jazz, and funk, the guitars are designed as vehicles for cultural expression, which is a major part of their appeal.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e \nThe brand also demonstrates a strong commitment to material selection; while sourcing tonewoods from around the world, it places particular emphasis on woods from the Pacific Northwest and southeastern Louisiana.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e \nWood from the Pacific Northwest provides high rigidity and clear acoustic characteristics, while wood grown in Louisiana’s swamp environment produces warmth, an organic resonance, and complex overtones. By combining these materials from different environments, the brand achieves a highly distinctive sound where a well-defined tonal image coexists with rich nuances that convey a sense of humidity.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e \nIn terms of design, a thorough pursuit of balance between playability, durability, and acoustic characteristics has been achieved. Through specifications such as the neck construction, body design, and zero fret, the instrument successfully combines stability and ease of play with a natural, three-dimensional tone at a high level.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e \nAlthough no spec sheet is included with this particular instrument, making a definitive determination is difficult; however, judging by the vertical grain pattern, the top is highly likely to be Figured Redwood.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e \nThe neck is believed to be an Ash neck-through construction (Opposed Grain), and its high rigidity and excellent response contribute to fast attack and a strong tonal core. The fingerboard is made of jet-black Ebony.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e \nThe body back is also presumed to be made of Ash, producing a clear attack and excellent projection, resulting in a sound with a sense of speed and good separation.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e \nThe Rio Grande humbucker features a strong midrange presence, characterized by a powerful and resilient tone. When combined with the Redwood and Ash construction, it adds a powerful core to the excellent response, resulting in a sound that balances richness and clarity.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e \nThis guitar is rarely seen in Japan and is a true rarity. We highly recommend this model to those seeking a guitar with unique character and rarity.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e \nCondition: B+: Some minor scratches, but no issues for normal use\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e \nSerial Number: 40706\u003cbr\u003e \nCountry of Manufacture: USA\u003cbr\u003e \nCase: Hard Case\u003cbr\u003e \nAccessories: None\u003cbr\u003e \nWeight: 3.75 kg\u003cbr\u003e \nTruss Rod: No issues; checked up to 60 degrees left and right with no problems\u003cbr\u003e \nFret Wear: No issues; sufficient height\u003cbr\u003e \nString height (low string side): 2.0 mm at the 12th fret\u003cbr\u003e \nString action (treble side): 1.5 mm at the 12th fret\u003cbr\u003e \nNut width: 44.2 mm\u003cbr\u003e \nNeck thickness near the 1st fret: 22.4 mm\u003cbr\u003e \nNeck thickness near the 12th fret: 25.2 mm\u003cbr\u003e \nScale: 635mm (25\")\u003cbr\u003e \nRADIUS: 305mm (12\")\u003cbr\u003e \nStrings at setup: .010-.046 set\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e \n* As this is a used item, there may be scratches, dents, and other imperfections that are not visible in the photos or not listed here.
