The Northwood Dreadnought (shown at right) delivers the classic sound popular in bluegrass and country music.

The large body volume emphasizes the lower frequencies while the lively top gives the high-end a nice shimmer. A clear vinyl pickguard is standard equipment on all Northwoods, but black or tortoise-shell is also available.

At left, the Florentine Cutaway is all about clean mitring. The side joints and the binding/purfling connections at the horn and heel are meticulously fitted to ensure integrity and continuity.

At Northwood, we believe in emphasizing tight, clean joinery in order to make a guitar with a difference.

The Venetian Cutaway’s tight lines push the limits of hand side-bending. Using the Mini-Jumbo body platform for our cutaway models allows easy access to the upper registers without sacrificing fullness of sound. Every Northwood fretboard is trued and fretted after the neck is fitted and glued into the body’s dovetail joint, giving even action all the way to the twentieth fret.

The Orchestra Model has a wonderful, even range of tone well suited for recording. Fingerstyle guitarists will find that its smaller dimensions give added mid-range definition to it's sound. Slightly shallower in depth, the OM is also very comfortable to play. The Northwood Orchestra Model uses the same 25 1/2" scale and 14 fret neck found on all Northwood models.
