The 3pc Nyatoh/Maple Neck provides a rich mid-low end. The Laurel fretboard provides a rich and warm tone. Spruce remains the most popular wood for acoustic guitar tops, mainly due to its pristine tonal clarity. The Okoume back and sides generate a woody, warm tone when the guitar is played softly or finger-picked and provide punchy high-mids with a clear projection when strummed. The Laurel bridge transfers string vibration directly to the body, delivering a natural and warm tone.
