But not all varieties of the two materials are created equal. Everything from where the wood grows to how the luthier pairs them with the instrument can dramatically affect the tone of an Acoustic Guitar. So we thought we should study these two woods in detail. We'll take a look at the different types we use in our instruments, and break down the two Breedlove families that build upon them.
Adirondack Spruce:
An iconic wood known as the ceiling material for guitar tops. It has more overall resonance than the Sitka spruce, loud and punchy, and the bass is focused and punchy.
German spruce:
Known for its creamy white appearance, German spruce has nearly the same tonal character as the Adirondack. Clear, focused, tight bass response, but not as bright.
Sitka spruce:
The most common guitar top material, Sitka spruce produces a loud, bright tone that accentuates the lows and highs. It combines stiffness and elasticity, which translates into a wide dynamic range, clear articulation.
Swiss spruce:
Beautifully grained, it produces a distinctive, clear and intense tone with more emphasis on the treble.
Engelmann Spruce:
Engelmann spruce is a lighter-colored wood than Sitka spruce, and it has the same tonal character as Sitka spruce, but with richer harmonics and a more focused midrange.
Brazilian Rosewood:
Ceilings in the back and sides panel material, the most popular wood. Highly regarded for its deep lows, mature mids, and sweet highs. Now in increasingly short supply, Brazilian rosewood is usually reserved for the highest models. Due to the embargo of Brazilian rosewood, its price has also soared year by year, and it is normal for a set to cost tens of thousands or even tens of thousands.
We're crazy about tonewoods of all types and have collections to prove it. We are known for our many exotic selections, including our beloved Myrtle. But the classics are hard to beat, and as long as the wood is available, the spruce/mahogany pairing will be there.
