The recurve model is built in collaboration with my son Oliver Moore.
Oliver is the designer of the head, rosette and other features, some of which are made to reflect my earlier style.
He is also responsible for re designing the sloping top into a more useful (though I must say, more difficult to make!) shape. Construction work is shared between us.
The curved top, or raised fingerboard feature to gain a little more access for the left hand over the guitar body is further developed with this model and provides added clearance.
The internal bracing styles are the same as for my GC models and the sound is the same.
Philip Woodfield has been building fine guitars in England for more than 30 years now.
Over time he has developed an ever growing appreciation among players and concert artists around the world, and no wonder, his guitars have everything we all look for, beautiful rich tone, ease of play, superb volume, and exquisite beauty and craftsmanship.
Some of the top soloist / Concert guitarists who play a Woodfield include Scott Tennant of the LA Guitar Quartet, Raymond Burley (USa), Giulio Tampalini (Italy), Kupinski Guitar Duo (Poland), Lorenzo Bernardi (Italy), Marcin Dylla (2007 GFA Winner), Emre Gokalp, Marek Pasciezny, and many others.
