Adirondack is a heavy tonewood with a rapid sound and high stiffness which is due to the length and width of its veins or grain in all its pieces.
As it happens with Sitka Spruce, it has a harmonic tones content more complex. And it’s necessary to remark that Adirondack tops have a very high volume, more than any other species. What’s more, this specie also has a rich fullness of tone, preserving the clarity at all dynamic levels.
Take advantage of all the qualities of Adirondack tops for classic guitar that you can find in Maderas Barber and make with them your own and rewarding instrument.
