The Auden Neo Colton is a natural-finished Dreadnought acoustic guitar from this respected British manufacturer. Featuring a solid AA cedar top with solid Mahogany back and sides, the Colton has a big voice, as you'd expect of a Dread', imbued with a warm tonality thanks to that lovely mellow Cedar top. This latest model has the added benefit of being fitted with Auden's new and exclusive Brad Clark Supernatural pickup system. Premium appointments such as maple body and fretboard binding give this guitar a classy aesthetic to match its outstanding build quality.

Auden Neo Colton - All-Solid Dreadnought with Cedar top and Mahogany Back / Sides
The Auden Neo Colton is part of Auden's more accessible Neo range of guitars, which is no bad thing as the fundamentals are all in place. All-solid construction and outstanding build quality are Auden's hallmarks, having enabled the brand to quietly gather a faithful customer base over the past few years. Being a big-bodied dreadnought, the Colton projects with ease, responding well to flat-picking or rhythm styles. The Cedar top injects some lovely warmth into the tonal mix, complemented by the focus of the Mahogany back, sides and neck. The neck itself is joined to the body using Auden's Dovetail / Hide Glue joint.
In terms of appointments, maple binding adorns the body and Rosewood fretboard, while a bone nut and saddle ensure that every last vibration is eked out of the strings. The satin finish embues the guitar with a restrained and classy aesthetic.
Discreet Brad Clark Supernatural Pre-amp
The Auden Neo Colton Dreadnougtht is powered by the Brad Clark Supernatural Pre-amp, an all-new system has left us highly impressed here at Merchant City Music. The Supernatural comprises two sensors: 1) Super Discrete Power bridge sensor (SDP) and 2) the Supernatural face sensor (FS). These are inputted into a programmable preamplifier. The sounds are “tuned” by professional musicians and pre-stored into the chip. There are four presets of sounds to suit most guitars, scenarios and styles. This system claims to provide unprecedented realism and flexibility, and, having experienced it, we’d have to agree! It is also incredibly lightweight, and does not compromise the guitar’s acoustic performance.
