About the Shadow Nanoflex pick-up & integrated pre-amp.
(as quoted from www.shadow-electronics.com)
With the invention of innovative Nanoflex technology, Shadow has launched another significant and successful phase in the history of sound amplification, which dates back to the 1930’s, when a wire was first coiled around a magnetic spool. Thus began the history of the electromagnetic pickup.
Nanoflex (NFX) is a name derived from the unit of measurement prefix “nano” and the word “flexible.” The name is quite fitting, since all the high-definition pickups of the NFX family are extremely thin and possess a great degree of flexibility. As a result, they conform closely to the surface of the instrument.
The Structure and Sound of Nanoflex Pickups : The Nanoflex pickup’s sensor consists of seven flexible layers of carefully selected materials. With extreme precision, these special strata pick up the pressure of the nut, which conveys string vibration, while simultaneously sensing the vibratory movements of the guitar’s surface as well.
The L-03RE traits
The L no-cut shape is the popular finger-style & strumming acoustic guitar among others, lower bout is 40.2 CM, upper bout is 28 CM, body thickness = 12 CM.
With this size & the symmetrical bracing Larrivee guitar, it delivers full harmonic of sound almost equally well from low to higher pitches with added clarity & warm in the middle tones. The low bass is the punchy & deep enough, with highly crisp mid-tones, sweet & deep trebles as the result of the very refine sitka spruce top & rosewood body cavity help producing massive acoustic wave propagation when you strum/pluck the strings. The Larrivee L-03RE Shadow Nanoflex EQ acoustic guitars is for guitar stage performers.
