<strong>Walden</strong> <strong>Guitars</strong> is the vision of American Luthier Jonathan Lee who learned his trade while<br />

partnered with Master Luthier Charles Fox. Together they built hundreds of handmade guitars<br />

in their small shop in Sonoma Country, California. Ten years later, Jonathan now leads a group<br />

of skilled builders in the small town of Lilan, Northern China, incorporating the standards<br />

established by generations of guitar makers and the precision of contemporary tools and<br />

technology.<br />

The results: great sounding, high quality, mid-priced instruments you will be proud to call your<br />

own for a lifetime.<br />

Your music reflects your attitude and how you live your life. So does<br />

your guitar. <strong>Walden</strong> is an expression of the choices you make, choices<br />

that matter and make a difference. Playing a <strong>Walden</strong> says that you<br />

want more than just a great instrument. You also want a guitar that is<br />

built in a responsible and ethical way.<br />

Why choose <strong>Walden</strong> <strong>Guitars</strong>? It comes down to the details. How it was<br />

made. Who made it. Where the materials came from. Features and<br />

specifications you don't notice immediately because they are just right.<br />

The way your guitar looks and sounds — how it effortlessly responds to<br />

your touch — like a great guitar should.<br />

Responsibility. We do not outsource our manufacturing and our guitar<br />

shop is the only one in Asia with a certified 100% Pure Chain-of-Custody.<br />

<strong>Walden</strong> <strong>Guitars</strong> is committed to developing legal sourcing for all our<br />

materials and supports the management of the world’s forests.<br />

Beauty is in the details you see. High-grade soundboards, Mahogany<br />

necks, and Indian Rosewood bridges and fingerboards guarantee rich,<br />

dynamic sounding guitars that improve the more you play. All bodies<br />

and necks are fully bound and incorporate the understated elegance of<br />

tasteful trim designs.<br />

Quality is in the details you don't see. <strong>Walden</strong> Natura and SupraNatura<br />

line guitars are coated with Nitrocellulose lacquer which opens up more<br />

and more as it cures and hardens, allowing your already great sounding<br />

guitar to sound better and better. Madera and Concorda line guitars<br />

feature a Polyester/Polyurethane high gloss finish, offering another<br />

great choice for <strong>Walden</strong> players. We build with traditional Lutherie<br />

woods and allow them to cure, dry and stabilize before transforming<br />

them into a <strong>Walden</strong> guitar in a humidity controlled environment. Inside<br />

each steel string instrument we incorporate a scalloped-X sprucebraced<br />

soundboard, bolt-on neck, and a 2-way adjustable truss rod.<br />

Fine instruments are a lifetime investment and our guitars will make<br />

this musical journey with you. In the following pages you will discover<br />

the <strong>Walden</strong> Madera, SupraNatura, Natura, Standard, and Concorda lines<br />

of guitars. We trust these pictures and descriptions will inspire you<br />

to go and play a <strong>Walden</strong> guitar because the sound of a great guitar is<br />

something that is beyond words. We hope you will allow <strong>Walden</strong> <strong>Guitars</strong><br />

the opportunity to appeal to your heart and touch your soul.<br />

DESIGN FEATURES<br />

Carbon Graphite & Glass-fiber Neck Reinforcement Design<br />

All <strong>Walden</strong> 1000-4000 Series guitars feature a modern thin-profile<br />

neck. This is reinforced with two rails of Carbon Graphite, a<br />

feature unique to <strong>Walden</strong> among comparably priced instruments,<br />

which increases stability and adds harmonic content. <strong>Walden</strong><br />

500-700 Series guitars incorporate two rails of “Glass-fiber”<br />

resulting in similar strength, stability and harmonic advantages.<br />

Satin Nitrocellulose Lacquer Finish<br />

Nitrocellulose lacquer is made from plant fiber. Because it can vibrate along with the<br />

moving soundboard, it has been the finish material of choice among the best luthiers since<br />

the late 1800s. A satin finish allows for the application of a thin coat thereby translating<br />

more energy into tone. A satin finish is also smoother than a glossy finish which can<br />

sometimes feel sticky, allowing the musician to play with greater ease and speed.<br />

“Pre-war” Scalloped-X Soundboard Design<br />

<strong>Walden</strong> steel-string guitars incorporate the “Pre-War” scalloped spruce X bracing on their<br />

soundboards based on the great guitars of the pre-World War II era. The scalloped-X brace<br />

and scalloped tone bars provide instruments with good clarity and openness of voice, while<br />

also stabilizing the soundboard against the pull of the strings.<br />

Bolt-on Neck Joint<br />

The bolt-on neck joint design has no unintended internal stress, resulting in increased<br />

stability, more resonance, and easier repair. The <strong>Walden</strong> neck joint is a tried-and-true<br />

method that involves joining a guitar neck and body using threaded-inserts in the heel<br />

and KD bolts through the neck-block.<br />

Two-way Adjustable Truss Rod<br />

All <strong>Walden</strong> guitars incorporate a 2-way adjustable truss rod that allows for<br />

the precise adjustment of the guitar's setup in response to seasonal changes.<br />

Furthermore, a player can increase or decrease fingerboard relief to exactly suit his<br />

or her personal playing style.<br />

Bone and Fossalite Nut & Saddle<br />

1000 to 4000 Series instruments incorporate a compensated bone<br />

nut and saddle, the finest material traditionally used on hand-made<br />

instruments. The material contributes to their exceptional depth,<br />

sustain and complexity of voice. <strong>Walden</strong> uses Fossalite nuts and<br />

saddles produced by Graph Tech, makers of the precision materials<br />

Tusq and Nubone. This synthetic material is used on <strong>Walden</strong> 300<br />

through 700 series instruments. Approximating the tonality of vintage<br />

bone, Fossalite increases the warmth and depth of the instrument’s<br />

harmonics and tone as well as contributing pristine highs and mids.<br />

Madera 4000<br />

The <strong>Walden</strong> Madera line is built with<br />

traditional guitar tonewoods. The<br />

difference is that these tonewoods are<br />

certified FSC-100%, meaning they all<br />

originate from well managed forests.<br />

Certified North American Sitka spruce<br />

or Western Red cedar soundboards with<br />

Central American Mahogany back, sides,<br />

and necks result in instruments with<br />

the voice you expect, without the guilt<br />

of clear-cutting rainforests. FSC-100%<br />

certified South American Katalox is also<br />

known as Mexican Ebony and is used<br />

for the fingerboard, bridge and headplate.<br />

All Madera steel-string instruments<br />

are recognizable by the tasteful “wood<br />

character” pearl embellishment below the<br />

pearl <strong>Walden</strong> headstock logo, an abalone<br />

two-ring rosette, and faux-tortoise shell<br />

binding. The all-solid Grand Auditorium<br />

CG4070E-CERT, with a wider 1¾” wide<br />

bone nut and a deep, rich voice, it is<br />

the fingerstylist’s choice. The all-solid<br />

Dreadnought CD4040E-CERT is a “classic”<br />

with its loud volume and great response.<br />

Both are available with <strong>Walden</strong>’s Tobacco<br />

Burst finish. The all solid Mahogany G &<br />

D 4041E-CERT models have a clarity that<br />

make them especially popular for blues<br />

pickers.<br />

All Maderas are performance ready<br />

with environmentally friendly MiSi<br />

“Green Guitarist’s Dream”<br />

“With its FSC 100% certified tonewoods, the CD4040-CERT is perfect for the thoughtfully green guitarist. It’s<br />

also a bargain as an all-solid-wood guitar with good looks and a robust sound, suitable for a variety of styles.<br />

And with its versatile voice, the CD4040E-CERT would also make a great go-to acoustic for any recording buff.”<br />

SupraNatura 3000<br />

The lutherie standards for handmade guitars were applied to<br />

create the all solid wood, flame maple bound SupraNatura 3000.<br />

Appointments such as a wood-abalone rosette, faceted Ebony<br />

bridge and unmarked fingerboard please without being ostentatious<br />

— the definition of "understated elegance." Whether you choose a<br />

G3000 or the G3030CE/CEQ you will be rewarded by the depth and<br />

balance of a handmade instrument. The G3030CE features Fishman<br />

Ellipse blend on-board electronics. The G3030CEQ comes with<br />

Fishman Prefix Pro on-board electronics.<br />

SupraNatura 2000<br />

Full harmonic content and complexity originates from building an instrument of all solid<br />

tonewoods. These Mahogany back and side guitars feature the distinction of Rosewood<br />

binding, all-wood trim, and a 2-ring rosette comprised of inlaid strips of Mahogany and<br />

Maple. Bridge and endpins are solid rosewood. Nut and saddle are bone. The simple<br />

elegance of these designs compliments the rich complexity of the guitar's voice.<br />

G2070<br />

"I have played fingerstyle guitar for 25 to 30 years. I recently bought a G2070 and feel blessed. It is difficult for me to imagine that any<br />

other guitar at any price could be significantly better in aesthetics, playability, or sound. It’s like a handmade custom instrument. This<br />

thing is as clear as a bell, and set up perfectly. Thanks a million for making these guitars available at such a great price."<br />

These solid top, solid back guitars are the entry to the SupraNatura line. The<br />

complex voice originates from a "pre-war" scalloped-X braced soundboard, bone<br />

nut and saddle, and graphite reinforced neck. With features usually found on<br />

much higher priced instruments such as all-wood trim and rosette and a lacquer<br />

finish, SupraNaturas are an exceptional value.<br />

Andres Roots<br />

Estonia Harmonica Festival<br />

Photo: Leif Laaksonen<br />

It's 9 a.m. at the biggest pub in Estonia, in the biggest summer resort in the country, it's raining, the room is filled with harmonicas<br />

and lederhosen, we've been driving since 6 o'clock and the coffee machine is broken.<br />

Our harmonica festival shows aren't scheduled to start before the evening but our harpist has insisted on entering the competition;<br />

Indrek's jittery and I'm sleepy, he walks away with Silver. A fellow musician points to my T550 and goes: "The bass lines were prerecorded,<br />

right?" "Nah, just me and my <strong>Walden</strong>... "<br />

Dennis, the American whom we're to back that evening, is still recovering from a late night, so we're off for pancakes in the rain.<br />

Ten hours later Dennis and I are on the concert hall stage with my partner Martin, winging it in front of TV cameras and trying to<br />

look as worried as the black-tie audience. "I learned a new song tonight," Dennis brags backstage. "We learned two," I shoot back.<br />

"Well, I'll have two more for you tomorrow," he grins. A grey-haired gentleman in an impeccably white suit walks up: "Thank you<br />

very much! My wife insisted that I tell you: your playing on that slow blues was so beautiful, it brought tears to our eyes."<br />

It's Friday night and there're five more shows to do with Indrek and Dennis. On Sunday Steve's flying in from London and we hit the<br />

road.<br />

As long as they fix that coffee machine...<br />

Natura 700<br />

The added tonal complexity and richness of a 700 series guitar results<br />

from using solid quartersawn, bookmatched woods for the soundboard<br />

and back. Nitrocellulose satin lacquer allows free vibration of this<br />

scalloped-X braced guitar. Embellished by a 2-ring abalone rosette,<br />

white bound body trim and gold tuners with black buttons, the 700<br />

Concorda 2000<br />

Handmade, all solid Concorda 2000 guitars are close relatives to<br />

their SupraNatura cousins, sharing a handmade bone nut-saddle,<br />

rosewood binding and wood trim, a graphite reinforced neck and the<br />

SupraNatura narrow neck shape. A gloss finish and maple-mahogany<br />

rosette are refinements that complete the alluring Concorda 2000.<br />

The CD2040 mates a Sitka top with mahogany and a standard 1 ¹¹⁄ 16<br />

"nut to produce a voice and playability in line with its "workhorse"<br />

lineage. Wide 1¾" neck G and O bodies serve finger-stylists, each<br />

incorporating solid Indian rosewood sides contributing to the breadth<br />

and resonance characteristic of this wood. On the CG2000CEQ, Prefix<br />

Pro electronics made by Fishman ensure the guitar sounds as great<br />

on stage as it does unamplified.<br />

CG2000CEQ<br />

“SIMPLICITY, SIMPLICITY, SIMPLICITY!”<br />

“The much feted character exhibited by those earlier instruments springs fully to life with the CG2000CEQ;<br />

it is a guitar that can confidently play whichever role you assign it, and all with a voice that you just want to<br />

keep hearing.”<br />

different from my other acoustics. I am also very pleased with the workmanship, attention to detail, and the 'Bluesy<br />

<strong>Walden</strong>'s Standard line of gloss finished guitars is the realization of our goal to build<br />

acoustic guitars with exceptional tonewoods, construction quality and features<br />

Natura<br />

Like aging a fine wine, the more<br />

you play a Natura, the better it<br />

will sound. Only solid spruce and<br />

cedar soundboards are used on a<br />

Natura guitar because the tone<br />

of a solid top improves as the the<br />

natural wood fibers resonate and<br />

respond to your musical style.<br />

Natura N700<br />

The clarity, brightness and complex harmonic structure of the 700 series classical guitar originates from a solid<br />

wood soundboard paired with a solid wood back. The solid Western Red Cedar soundboard/solid Rosewood back<br />

model produces warmth and breath, whereas the solid Sitka Spruce/solid Mahogany back model is crisp and<br />

bright. Natural aging lacquer ensures that the tone continues to blossom as the solid woods open up. Tasteful<br />

ornamentations like an inlaid wood rosette and mitred trim complete these excellent solid wood classical guitars.<br />
