EKO GUITARS WOW A800e SB LTD OVERVIEW
An uncompromising series based on a selection of woods from all over the world. WOW, acronym for Wood Of the World Series, but also the exclamation of those who see these guitars for the first time, represents the top of the range of the EKO catalog. Each single guitar is unique and each wooden part is selected from a wide range of fine materials such as Cocobolo, Ovangkol, Koa, Rosewood, Sapele and others. The entire WOW series is All Solid, therefore, with solid top, sides and back, the nature of the wood is enhanced in favor of a particularly specific timbre.
Master luthier Roberto Fontanot carefully selects the woods of each instrument to create masterpieces that will be the joy of every single musician. The variety of woods used as sides and back of each individual guitar will give the six strings completely different characteristics in terms of sound.
The choice of the Top fell on the Italian Red Spruce chosen among the most figured of the highest quality grade, coming from a region of the Alps known for supplying woods used in the production of the best violins in the world, only a few producers can access these private reserves.
The Wow A800e SB LTD comes in Natural with a Gloss finish, with an Auditorium shape. The combination of solid spruce on the top and solid bocote on the sides and back, the result of careful research, gives this instrument a very broad and always well-balanced tonal spectrum on each individual string. A very important feature is the presence of a very high-performance amplification system, the Fishman Flex Blend: made up of a piezo and an internal condenser microphone, this system allows you to capture every nuance of the guitar thanks to the possibility of gradually adding the signal taken from the microphone to the piezo signal, via a “blend” potentiometer. Among the controls, in addition to the output volume and blend, there is a display tuner (activated by pressing the volume potentiometer) and an EQ control that works in “mid-scooped” mode: kept at a minimum the signal is not equalized (flat), increasing it gradually reduces the mid frequencies in favor of low and high frequencies, very convenient for obtaining a sound that is already “ready” for the mix. In case the guitar has feedback problems, a very common situation in the acoustic field, it is possible to invert the phase by pressing the EQ potentiometer. All these features together make the Wow A800e SB an instrument suitable for professional contexts, both in the recording studio and on stage.
