Ozark models |
New models just out include two Ozark 'L'
models. When you pick up these guitars, you'll
have difficulty tearing yourself away from
playing:
3340:
featuring a solid spruce top and vintage tobacco
sunburst finish
3740:
part of the Ozark Deluxe Series featuring
solid mahogany back and sides made from AA
grade timbers and D'Addario EXP strings with
Artec transducer and endpin jack preamp.
The new Ozark Tenor
Guitar is perfect both for guitarists
looking for a different sound and tenor banjo
players. Its sweet tone and superb projection
are already proving irresistible.
Ozark
Travel guitars are now better than ever.
The body has been redesigned, giving the guitar
a sleeker, more compact shape. |

| Gary
Moore falls for an Ozark resonator |
Guitarist Gary Moore recently used his Ozark
thinline resonator guitar (3515BTE) on the
first-ever acoustic blues track he has recorded.
His Ozark resonator features on the track
'Sundown' on his latest album: 'Close as You
Get'.
In a recent interview in Guitar Buyer magazine,
Gary Moore talks about why he likes his Ozark
resonator: "I used an Ozark resonator
that I bought in a little store about two
minutes from my house in Hove," Moore
explains. "The guy said to me, 'Try this
little Ozark - they're so cheap but they sound
great'. I really liked it, so I bought it
on the spot and took it home. This was just
before Christmas and I ended up sitting at
home playing it around Christmas to people
in the house. I love the way if you hit it
a little harder it gets twice as loud. It's
really dynamic - if you dig into it it just
suddenly shouts out at you and the sound gets
really loud. The weight is there, but it's
got a much skinnier body than most resonators,
so you can hold it much closer to you and
it's not cumbersome to use."

Brown plays Ozark |
'60s pop star Joe Brown recently visited Stentor,
together with his son Pete and his guitarist
Neil Gauntlett, after being impressed by the
Ozark instruments on display at the Music
Live Show. Having tried many models from the
full Ozark range they purchased 3515BTEG and
3515SQ resonator guitars, a 2255 and a 2256
mandolin, and are mulling over adding a 2037
ukulele banjo, a 2257S mandola and a 2244E
'F' model bouzouki. Joe commented that these
were professional standard instruments at
realistic prices. |
