About: Deep in the northern
woods around Joensuu in Eastern Finland, Seeing exotic tree
species dangerously coming closer to extinction each day, they decided to act.
Looking both to preserve and to innovate, they set out to develop a
revolutionary new molded wood material, one that would resonate like the very
finest of the fine traditional musical tonewoods. The sound produced was to be
both warm and rich, yet the material also needed to be suitable for today's
environmentally friendly production methods. And so it came to pass,
that a new molded wood material was born, and they called it flaxwood, Flaxwood Guitars were
born of a dream of making a better guitar. A guitar with all the
characteristics that make a difference to the most demanding player: full, rich
tone; extended sustain; wide frequency response and dynamic range; trouble-free
tuning and flawless intonation. Rethinking wood as an
instrument-building material. Experienced luthiers and
experts possessing decades of knowledge in both traditional guitar building and
modern, advanced material technology put their collective expertise together to
create an alternative to traditional tonewoods that near extinction. After
years of research, experiments and good, old-fashioned hard work, Flaxwood
Guitars has created a high quality, stable, and ecologically friendly molded
wood material that can stand up to the high standards today's players have come
to expect of boutique instruments. Now, we proudly present the fruits of our
labor -- the new line of Flaxwood Guitars. Flaxwood Guitars -
tradition and high-quality handcraft in perfect harmony with revolutionary
technology. Contact: Flaxwood Oy, Finland
