RainSong


Guitar Body Shape
Body Shape
The WS, RainSong's Signature Guitar, is a wonderfully versatile instrument.
Combining the best qualities of large and small bodied guitars, it is ideally suited for a variety of musical situations. A large, deep chamber gives the WS strong projection and rich bass. The narrow waist and tight upper bout allow for a ringing treble, good balance and clear definition of individual notes.Overall, the WS is impeccably balanced. The shapely curves and light weight make the WS a comfortable guitar to cradle or stand with. The extra deep cutaway encourages playing up the fretboard.
The OM Model is the smallest and most refined of all RainSong shapes.
It is our most comfortable and intimate guitar, with an immediacy of presence that makes it a favorite with the coffee house crowd. A crystal bell clarity, balance, superb separation of individual notes, and an expansive dynamic range make the OM one of our most individually expressive guitars. Because of Projection Tuned Layering(TM), the OM is capable of strong projection. It won't rattle windows like the Jumbo or the Dreadnought, but the OM, when driven, packs a lot of power and punch for a small bodied guitar.
How do you describe RainSong's JM? Three words: loud, loud, and loud.
And if that's not enough, it's also loud. This is the largest body RainSong builds. The sheer size, combined with the attributes of Projection Tuned Layering(TM) make the JM one of the loudest acoustic guitars on the planet. This guitar is loud. We had to say it again. But the JM is not just about power. The narrow waist and some layering refinements specific to the Jumbo soundboard give the JM some real fingerstyle grace. The guitar is strong, but impeccably balanced, with bass, mids and trebles distinct, clear and, dare we say it again, loud.
The Dreadnought is the traditional workhorse of acoustic guitar music.
With a large, deep body and wide waist, RainSong's DR has the powerful bass and ringing treble of a great rhythmic guitar, but still maintains a wonderfully balanced sound, with clear distinction among individual notes. From rhythm to lead, the DR makes its presence known. Capable of cutting through admirably in any acoustic setting, the DR is loud enough to compete with banjoes, mandolins and other traditional volume hogs.
Guitare Neck Shape
neck
Original 6-string: The original 6-string necks are crafted using a unique low-profile design, one that is at once comfortable and different, thin and easy to play. Performance Shape Casting allows fretslots to be cast in place for flawless intonation with no dead spots. Additionally, these necks are preengineered for optimal relief. As a result, heavy steel truss rods are not required and action can be set for fast, buzz-free playing.
neck
N2 6-string: The N2 is a result of an extensive long-term collaboration with the renowned artist Steve Miller and Master Luthier John Bolin. The neck design is based on a modified "U" profile that has been popular in guitars since the 1950s. While the N2 has a more substantial feel than the Original 6-string neck, it is ergonomically sound and actually results in better transfer of string vibration energy to the soundboard. The N2 features a truss rod that is accessible from the head stock. Graphite necks do not warp or bow with changes in humidity and temperature. The purpose of a truss rod in the N2 is to allow customization of the relief to individual preferences.
neck
12-string: There is no better stage than a twelve string to appreciate the qualities of all-graphite construction. The stability and strength of graphite compared to wood is very high. As a result, RainSong is able to set its twelve string action low and design its neck to be thin, comfortable and easy to play without fear of structural failure due to the increased tension of six extra strings.
