Juicy, fat, a full-bodied beauty: our like-new 2018 Greenfield G2 is a force of nature. Malaysian Blackwood back and sides, Alpine Moonspruce top, twin arm & rib bevels plus a Florentine cutaway—and that’s just for starters. Michael also installed his DADGAD multiscale board (26.125” to 25.4”), Baljak tuners, his “swoosh” heel, and Spalted rosette to tie it all together. And this beautiful package comes wrapped up in a Mainstage flight case to boot.
There’s some serious meat on these bones: the bass response is rich and enveloping, and those treble strings almost have a life of their own. The note-for-note balance is superb; somehow Michael manages to make individual notes juicy and larger-than-life, but clearly defined relative to adjacent ones. Loud and clear, indeed.
This 2018 Greenfield G2 is in a category all of its own.
