At the core of the Lakewood A-32 Custom's impressive sound is its premium all-solid tonewood construction, which ensures a powerful, resonant voice. The classic solid cedar top delivers a warm, well-developed tone with rich overtones from the very first strum. Complementing this, the solid East Indian rosewood back and sides add pronounced mids and deep, full bass response. This carefully selected tonewood pairing creates a superb tonal balance, ideal for a wide range of styles – from expressive fingerpicking to dynamic strumming. Each note rings out with remarkable clarity and precision, making this auditorium guitar a true all-rounder for demanding musicians.
The generous cutaway on the Lakewood A-32 Custom unlocks the full performance range of the instrument, allowing effortless access to higher frets for expressive soloing and advanced playing techniques. The easy-to-grip cedro neck with an ergonomic C-profile, paired with a smooth ebony fingerboard, ensures exceptional playing comfort and allows the fretting hand to glide effortlessly. A 45 mm bone nut offers the ideal string spacing for relaxed and precise fingerstyle playing, while the high-quality Lakewood ProTune III tuners provide excellent tuning stability, making this guitar a reliable partner on stage or in the studio.
The Lakewood A-32 Custom is perfectly suited for stage and studio use, thanks to its professional-grade L. R. Baggs Anthem pickup system. At the heart of this system lies the innovative TRU•MIC technology, which combines a high-quality condenser microphone with a precision element piezo pickup to capture the full spectrum of the instrument's natural tone. Every nuance of the player’s performance is transmitted with stunning clarity and impressive feedback resistance, ensuring outstanding sound even at higher volumes. For added flexibility, a discreet control panel inside the sound hole allows intuitive adjustment of volume and tone, giving musicians full control over their amplified sound. This seamless blend of authentic tone and modern electronics makes the A-32 Custom a powerful tool for discerning acoustic performers.
The Lakewood A-32 Custom is crowned by an artistic design that makes it a visual standout in every respect. Its traditional Natural high-gloss finish paired with elegant rosewood bindings highlights the intricate grain of the tonewoods, lending the guitar a warm, vintage-inspired charm. Carefully crafted aesthetic details elevate its appearance, ensuring strong visual identity and lasting impression. A shimmering mother-of-pearl double-ring rosette harmonizes beautifully with delicate snowflake inlays on the fretboard. The eye is also drawn to the openwork headstock, a feature more common in classical guitars, which adds a distinctive flair. Completing the premium look are custom-designed tuners fitted with rosewood tuning wings, bringing a refined touch to both form and function.
