Top Adirondack Spruce, 2A grade, classical/000/OM

$105.14

Adirondack Spruce was used for the tops on many of the great pre-war American guitars. Many guitarmakers today believe that this wood is a significant contributing factor to the strong, clear tone of those vintage/collectible instruments. 

In general, the visual/cosmetic quality in use today by the best builders and high-end factories (typically the 2A tops) has more grain and color variation than either good Sitka or Engelmann Spruce - but that variation has been accepted in acquiring and working with this fine, great sounding wood.

Top Adirondack Spruce, 2A grade, classical/000/OM

Adirondack Spruce was used for the tops on many of the great pre-war American guitars. Many guitarmakers today believe that this wood is a significant contributing factor to the strong, clear tone of those vintage/collectible instruments. 

In general, the visual/cosmetic quality in use today by the best builders and high-end factories (typically the 2A tops) has more grain and color variation than either good Sitka or Engelmann Spruce - but that variation has been accepted in acquiring and working with this fine, great sounding wood.
