Body Top
Most manufacturers are using Sitka spruce tops for their high end models. In our experience, we have found that Engelmann spruce (Canada) naturally suits the role for top woods better than any other. The overriding quality for body top material is an allowance for resonance and Engelmann spruce has this attribute in abundance. It is a light wood that is easy to work and enables a good tone response with a wide harmonic range. Visually Engelmann spruce is comfortable on the eye and its opaque light yellow tint is reminiscent of a mature acoustic instrument.

Back and Side
Yamaha uses solid rosewood for both the back and sides on all the L series models( except for "6"grade ). The rosewood blends extremely well with the Engelmann spruce top. It disperses resonance evenly and effortlessly.

Neck Block
The neck block reinforces the neck joint. Yamaha has improved the conventional `C` block design by enlarging the surface area that is in contact with the top of the guitar. The block securely meets the underside of the top adding a real depth to the tone of the instrument.

Bracing
X-bracing maps out the vibration patterns of the guitar. Our unique 90-degree X-pattern can be seen below. Each of the eight braces has been carefully positioned in order to bring out the tone in a balanced fashion and find a natural harmony with the guitar's tone woods.

Square Bracing
Yamaha utilizes vertical strips of mahogany around the sides of the body. Its starting point is as close to the neck joint as possible. These strips have two jobs: first, to aid a fuller bass helping the guitarist to really feel the work the guitar is doing and second these strips naturally offer a support role for the solid wood back and sides over time.

Ibanez SGT520VS - Sage Series Acoustic Guitar

2007-09-24T21:37:00.000-07:00

SGT520VS has re-enforced that reputation: a smart combination of materials and very apparent attention to construction details helps this elegant guitar stand apart in a very cluttered budget dreadnought market.

The ever-improving quality of many entry-level guitars certainly isn’t new news. But finding a good guitar at a rock-bottom price can still be a roll of the dice. Ibanez has a solid track record for minimizing that risk and delivering playability and tone at the lower end of the cost spectrum.

Specs
Finish: Vintage Sunburst High Gloss Finish
BodyShape: Dreadnought Body
Neck: Mahogany Neck
BackSides: Mahogany Back and Sides
GtrTop: Solid Spruce Top
Rosette: Pearloid Rosette
Tuners: Ibanez Chrome Die-Cast Tuners
Fretboard: Rosewood Bridge and Fretboard
Saddle: Ivorex II ™ Nut and Saddle
BridgePins: Advantage™ Bridge Pins
Strings: D'Addario® EXP™ Strings

The Ibanez SGT520VS is an ideal beginner’s guitar and good enough that any player looking for a solid second instrument would also be well served by checking it out. It’s highly playable, tonally satisfying, and shows every sign of being a well-made and long-lasting instrument that may well mature gracefully in tone and appearance. With a street price of less than $200, it’s safe to say Ibanez has taken a step toward reaching a new high at the low end.

Mike Garrigan Records an Acoustic Bass

2007-09-18T00:29:00.000-07:00

Writen by Mike Garrigan at www.MikeGarrigan.com

I love the challenge of recording instruments that I'm not used to recording. Yesterday, at a tracking session for John Gillespie, I got my first opportunity to record an acoustic bass.

Even with acoustic music, I typically prefer an electric bass. The electric bass is a known quantity--fairly easy to record well. John is working on a 19 song album at my studio. He thought, and I agreed, that it would be wise to change up the bass tone a bit from song to song. An acoustic bass seemed like a good option for five of the songs.

An acoustic bass is a different beast all together. All of the rules apply for acoustic guitar, except there's the issue of it being a lower octave and more air being displaced by the lower waves. The go-to mic for this kind of thing is a condenser mic. Most engineers would lobby for putting the mic about a foot away from the instrument. I didn't do this.

I took a line signal from the instrument's pickup. The direct line from this acoustic bass sounded a bit clacky, so I rolled off a considerable amount of highs. Still, I wasn't getting the low that I wanted from the direct line. Rather than boost a bunch of lows on the EQ, I reached for a dynamic floor tom mic. I put the mic as close to the sound hole as I could. I was very pleased with the result. The lows are full and resonant and I didn't have to compress or EQ at all. That's what I shoot for.

Two Important Functions of Bass

2007-09-14T22:10:00.000-07:00

In almost all musical forms, the bass has two important functions to fulfill.
First, the bass defines the chords being played and guides the movement of the music from one chord to another. This role is usually shared with a guitar or a piano.

Second, the bass provides the rhythm of the music being played. This role is usually shared with the drums. Because it links the two functions of rhythm and harmony, the bass is often the instrument around which the rest of the music is organized.

All music is organized into chords. A chord is a set of three or more different notes being played simultaneously, with one of the notes being the root note of the chord and the other notes defining the type of chord being played. The job of the bass is to indicate which chord is being played at a given moment, and this is most easily achieved by playing the root note of the chord.
