​​​Lakewood D-14 2018 Edition测评

Lakewood may not have the brand name prestige of some of the big American guitar makers, but the German company’s handcrafted acoustic have been impressing those who look beyond the brand names for some years. In place of the big name you get meticulous attention to detail, superb tonewoods, and a sense of individuality which sets a Lakewood apart from the run of the mill.

也许相比美国的大品牌来说，Lakewood似乎有些名不见经传。但许多不以名气为唯一评价标准的乐手，都对这家德国吉他公司的手工制作原声吉他印象深刻。虽然知名度略逊一筹，但对细节的一丝不苟，对炫彩的极致追求以及对个性化定制的关注，都让Lakewood有别于普通制琴工坊，脱颖而出。

The D-14 2018 Edition is a limited edition all-mahogany 12th fret Dreadnought, which is quite distinctive in an understated kind of way. The top on our sample was nicely striped and although it’s quite a plain guitar in appearance, little touches like that striping, the open headstock, an ebony fretboard and the wooden tuner buttons set it apart from the usual, rather boring if we’re to be frank, mahogany Dreadnought.

D-14 2018限定款是限量全桃花心木12品Dreadnought型吉他，选材与琴型彰显着低调的华丽。我们测评的这款吉他面板线条流畅，虽然外表看上去朴实无华，但木材纹路、琴头样式、乌木指板以及木制旋柄等细节，都领这款吉他迥异于市面上其他平平无奇的桃花心木D型吉他。

Playing wise, Ben liked the high quality clean build as well as the v-neck profile and when you listen to his review, note the clarity and articulacy of the Lakewood’s sound. This is quite far removed from the big boomy Dreadnoughts you often hear, suiting itself, Ben thought, to singer songwriters as much as to soloists. In fact, the D-14 2018 would make quite a versatile Dreadnought to either add to a player’s collection or equally as someone’s main instrument. This is a guitar with its own voice and one which we think will just go on getting better as the years pass.

在弹奏体验方面，Ben很欣赏该琴整体优质的清亮音色以及V型琴颈。在观看视频测评时，可着重关注该琴清晰悦耳的音乐语言表达。该琴不像那些大家经常听到的大块头轰鸣的D型吉他，而自成一派别具特色。在Ben看来，这款吉他既适合创作歌手，也能满足独奏吉他手的需求。D-14 2018限定款的适用演出场合非常广泛，适合作为主要弹奏吉他频繁适用，也适合作为备用吉他收入囊中。这款具有独特琴音的吉他，随着时间的积淀也将更具收藏价值。

This Lakewood is excellent value for money, too, coming with a sturdy Hiscox case and so once again certainly upholds Lakewood’s reputation as a maker of distinctive instruments at very attractive prices.

从经济的角度看，这款琴可以称得上是物有所值，配置优质高档的Hiscox琴盒，再次体现出Lakewood在追求更高性价比方面所做出的努力。
