Koa &
Adirondack
Adirondack spruce, known for its small trees and very light, almost white appearance (similar to alpine spruce), often features wider growth ring spacing—but don’t let that fool you!
This wood brings a unique, three-dimensional tonal quality that’s hard to describe in words. When paired with Hawaiian Koa, the combination delivers a deeper, richer sound with a "fatter" depth, thanks to the Koa's tonal character. Adirondack spruce, used even in the bracing, enhances volume, projection, and sustain.
The Plus models also feature the renowned 510 tuners, widely considered the best for their smoothness and accuracy. To top it off, a touch of age is added with 5000-year-old bog oak used for the front and back head facings, further enriching the guitar’s aesthetic and sound.

In 2004 George decided that a series of guitars similar to the original series but with a couple of upgrades would be great to offer to the players who wanted the best tuners you can get on the one hand, but also had a little more detailing in the appointments in general. So the 35 series was born.
