The top of a guitar refers to the front face of the body, usually the wood panel that has the sound hole on an acoustic or the pickups mounted on an electric. It’s one of the most important parts for tone, especially on acoustics, where the top’s wood type, thickness, and construction greatly affect resonance, volume, and warmth.
Common woods for guitar tops include spruce, cedar, and maple. On electrics, the top can also be a separate piece with special finishes or inlays, adding to the instrument’s aesthetics as well as its sound character.

Stringjoy is a Nashville-based guitar string company founded in 2014 by Scott Marquart. Frustrated with the limited options for customizing string gauges, Marquart started the company with just $500, aiming to make high-quality, customizable strings accessible to all musicians. Stringjoy quickly gained recognition as the world’s first true guitar string custom shop, catering to a diverse range of genres including metal, country, and prog fusion.
What sets Stringjoy apart is their commitment to craftsmanship and innovation. Each string is wound individually by skilled technicians, ensuring precise tension and consistency. This meticulous process results in strings that offer balanced playability, long-lasting tone, and reliable tuning stability. Stringjoy offers a wide variety of string types for electric, acoustic, and bass guitars, as well as mandolins and pedal steel guitars. Their product lines include Signatures, Naturals, Broadways, Foxwoods, and Rangers, each designed to meet specific tonal and playability preferences. Additionally, Stringjoy has collaborated with artists like Mark Morton of Lamb of God and Robert Keeley to create signature string sets tailored to their unique playing styles.
