About Peruvian Walnut
Peruvian Walnut's latin (scientific) name is Juglans Australis, Juglans Neotropica with distribution commonly obtained in Southern Mexico, Southern & Central America. The Peruvian Walnut is considered as exotic woods eventhough they are not listed in the CITES Appendices, but a number of tropical species in the Juglans genus are on the IUCN Red List. The most notable species, Juglans neotropica, is listed as endangered due to a population reduction of over 50% in the past three generations
Heartwood tends to be darker than temperate walnut species, with a deep chocolate brown color, sometimes with a purplish hue. May also contain streaks of lighter-colored wood mixed throughout the heartwood
Peruvian Walnut is more expensive than domestic species of Walnut, though it still tends to be moderately priced for an imported lumber. Expect prices to be similar to other mid-range South American imports.
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.
