DESCRIPTION: The Cole Clark Violap features a hollow body, with internally carved top and back. The tone is at once strong yet sweet, the response from a tone bar lively and laconic, depending solely on your mood. This is the lap steel you’ll want to play in the small hours of the night, when the house is quiet, or when room service is closed. Physical balance is good, aided by the hollow neck design, the hourglass shape vaguely reminiscent of body shapes from the thirties. Light weight yet with great projection, the Violap could well be the voice of the Siren which seduces you into expanding your playing style. Remember! Our prices include the following benefits: free annual set-up, 10% discounts on strings, repairs and lessons and a 100% value trade-back for future upgrade. And if you don't find what you want - or if you are ready to wait a little longer - we can place special orders and get you very low prices!
 
COLE CLARK:What makes Cole Clark different? They are played by new generations of acoustic players as Jack Johnson Ben Harper or John Butler. But big names does not make big guitars! Cole Clark stands out with innovation: * Innovation in woods - Brad Clark has always promoted the use of local woods such as Bunya Queensland Maple and Tasmanian blackwood - they sound great and give an environment friendly alternative to Sitka Mahogany and Rosewood without loosing tonal qualities (yet different) * Innovation in design : innovative construction process including unique spanish heel feature and fully controlled use of computers allow to produce high quality guitars with distinctive sound and look and keep the costs lows * innovation in electronics: all our guitars are equipped with Cole Clark dual pick ups and associated pre-amp. One of the reason of their succes is certainly related to the efforts made by Brad to get the best amplified sound... with quite a succes.
