Fat Lady Guitar Giveaway

Grand Prize: Cole Clark Fat Lady 3A
Deadline: Apr 30, 2009

What makes the Cole Clark Fat Lady 3A one of the favorite choices of today’s top touring pros? Simply put, it’s an acoustic guitar that sounds as awesome amplified as it does unplugged. Whether you’re playing at home or performing live, the FL3A consistently provides impeccable, professional sound.

Cole Clark’s innovative pickup system features 9 sensors: 6 under the saddle, and three FaceBrace® Sensors, which are the first pickups designed to capture the vital tones created by the top of the guitar.

The FL3A also features an additional sensor to capture the vibration of the back. The fat bottom end is taken from the Piezoelectric sensors under the saddle to reduce feedback. The Faceblend Preamp lets you customize your sound by taking the top end frequencies from the bridge or soundboard.

The FL3A’s sides and back are made of Tasmanian Blackwood. Its solid top is crafted from Bunya pine, a remarkably strong, lightweight wood that’s sustainably grown and harvested in Australia. Because this renewable resource is useful not only for guitar-making, but also for protecting wildlife, Cole Clark is actively involved in fighting to save the Bunya forests.

Premier Guitar Hamer Talladega Pro Giveaway
Thursday, April 23, 2009

Grand Prize: Hamer Talladega Pro
Deadline: Jul 23, 2009
Retail Value: $5,000

Win a Hamer Talladega Pro!

Based on Hamer's innovative Talladega model, the Talladega Pro offers long-scale players a humbucking alternative. The "Pro" will feel familiar to players of traditional bolt-on single-coil guitars, yet it supplies classic mahogany and maple, humbucking tones.

The Talladega Pro features an Ivoroid bound, honduras mahogany body matched to an arched, figured maple top. The ivoroid bound 25 1/2" scale mahogany neck is hand-carved to a '56 V shape and set into the body with a full dovetail (glued) joint.

The straight grained rosewood fingerboard is adorned with Hamer's trademark "Victory" inlays and fretted with wide-oval frets. Electronics include two custom wound Seymour Duncan humbucking pickups, with 2 volumes, 2 tones (Sprague Orange Drop Caps) and three way toggle wired in the "period correct" configuration.

The single piece aluminum wraparound bridge is by TonePros, as are the vintage Kluson tuners. The Talladega Pro is the ideal Humbucking-equipped single-cut for the bolt-on player who is looking for a wider pallette of tones without losing the feel they're accustomed to.

In addition, giveaway entrants will have the opportunity to get a free copy of the DVD "Building an American Legend: Hamer Guitars.
