The woods I use
Finding the woods for excellent guitars is a second life for me as guitar maker.
Most of my woods are over 20 years old. Especially the soundboard must be made of old European spruce or cedar. European spruce used to be over 5 years old, my stock goes to 25 years old.
European spruce is excellent for the treble and a powerful sound.
Cedar gives a different timbre. For cedar counts also that it must be old and seasoned. My cedar is over 20 years old.
The only way to select woods for the soundboard is by feeling the wood in your hands. The correct stiffness and the grain combine to a perfect top for your guitar.
The best woods are old woods.
