Rosewood is a popular hardwood often used for guitar fretboards and sometimes backs and sides of acoustic guitars. It is prized for its smooth feel, rich dark colour, and warm, resonant tone that adds depth and complexity to your playing. Rosewood fretboards offer a slightly softer attack and enhanced sustain compared to maple, making them a favourite among many guitarists. Its natural oils also help keep the fretboard smooth and comfortable, contributing to an enjoyable playing experience.
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.
