Description

In a small pub or on the stage of that gigantic festival; with the street performer or the megastar accustomed to arenas: wherever we have live music, we will find a guitar with steel strings – and Giannini presents the new Arizona series em busca de auxiliar o artista na obtenção de um som ainda mais destacado, poderoso e vibrante, tanto faz se junto aos amigos ou se frente a uma audiência de milhares.

A utilização de madeiras como Pau-Ferro e Louro-Preto é uma das novidades que aqui apresentamos, complementada por equalizadores desenvolvidos para que a experiência dos novos modelos seja realmente especial. O G-01 have an internal microphone, and the G-02 have magnetic pickup; both with Chorus, Delay and Reverb effects which can be played not only on amplifiers, but also directly on the instrument itself, without the need for external devices. So stop looking: the best brazilian folk is here, and that's it!

The Woods

Sitka Spruce

It results in instruments with good projection and a very “live” sound, with prominent bass, clear tones and lots of attack. Found in North America, especially in the moist soils of temperate forests, Sitka Spruce is creamy-white, light pink or brown in color. Its tree, which can reach almost 100 meters in height, is considered the third largest living being in the world, behind only the sequoia and eucalyptus. It has the best strength-to-weight ratio among all cataloged wood species.

Brazilian Cedar

Widely used in solid instruments, due to its lightness and stability. The sound provided by Brazilian Cedro is characterized by a deeper and velvety tone, excellent bright definition (as it is not very resinous), good projection and sustain. Natural wood from open forests and fields with a hot/humid climate, widely distributed in the North region, mainly in the states of Acre, Amapá, Amazonas, Pará and Rondônia. It has low density, medium to thick texture, pinkish-beige color, and veins forming smooth regular designs.

Pau-Ferro

Used in acoustic instruments and in the creation of fingerboards and bridges. It produces pieces with good sound, beautiful finishing and excellent sustain, with a brighter tone than Rosewood, but which manages to retain the warmth for which Rosewood is celebrated. Its color varies from light yellowish brown to brownish brown, with dark veins forming characteristic and exotic irregular designs. Known for its rigidity, moderately light and very durable, Pau-Ferro is found in Goiás, Minas Gerais, Espírito Santo, São Paulo and Paraná states.

Louro-Preto

With a sound more towards medium/low bass, Louro-Preto has a quality attack and excellent sustain. In musical instruments, it is used not only in the bodies of guitars and violas, but also to make necks, fingerboards and bridges. It has a medium texture, great density, highlighted longitudinal bands, and a soft cut (despite its hardness). Tree that can reach up to nine meters in height, and prefers Cerrado and Caatinga climates. Present mainly in the states of Mato Grosso, Minas Gerais and Paraná.
