Cole Clark RAN2EC-NNR Recording Grand Auditorium Acoustic-Electric Guitar All AA Narra, Rosewood Fretboard and Bridge, SNRW369 [NAMM Showcase Instrument]

2026 NAMM SHOWCASE INSTRUMENT

We are delighted to have the opportunity to offer this guitar, which was specially selected by Cole Clark to showcase at the 2026 NAMM Show in Anaheim, California.  That means it's particularly beautiful and set up extra well.  It also means that, although this is a brand new instrument with full warranty, it may have a tiny mark here or there, sustained during a demo play (perhaps by a well-known artist!).  On this instrument, the only mark we've been able to detect is a pair of minor scrapes, about an inch long, on the center of the back (only visible in certain lighting/angles--you can see they disappear in the larger view), as shown in photos, which all depict the actual instrument for sale.  The instrument is otherwise pristine and sounds amazing, which is unsurprising as these are Cole Clark's best sounding acoustics. The price has already been discounted to reflect this issue.

Made In Australia – Best Cole Clark Acoustic, Very Good Plugged In.
Recording has a large X brace and a Classical Guitar T brace at the rear. The top is 3mm thick with 2.6mm carved out in patches.

This guitar is our loudest acoustic guitar.

About Narra Tonewood

Narra is a prized, durable tropical hardwood from Southeast Asia, known as the national tree of the Philippines, valued for its rich golden-yellow to reddish-brown colors, beautiful figures (like curl or burl, also called Amboyna), and excellent finishing properties, making it popular for fine furniture, decorative items, and especially for musical instruments due to its stable, resonant tonality, offering warm, balanced sounds for guitars.
