Overview A Curly Maple Archtop Guitar Backs:

Impossible not to be in awe of the beauty of a curly maple back for archtop guitars. Although plywood backs have been used on a good number of guitars shortly after its inception as an instrument, a solid back is still unbeatable. The reason is simple: maple is for all its qualities (physical, aesthetic, sonic) the best choice for multiple parts of the instrument.

Add to this the incredible look it has once varnished and you will understand why it is so successful. Emulate icons like Benedetto and D'Angelico by using this wood in your next archtop guitar. You can find in our Tops section the spruce top to complement this maple back.

Many apprentices or people interested in lutherie start using A grade backs for their first projects. These pieces have less curl than the higher grades, but are just as strong and stable. There may be some small knots or discoloration in the piece. But it will always be purely aesthetic and not structural considerations which determine their classification.

Features:

  • Dimensions: (600x230x25/8 mm)x2
  • Botanical Name: Acer pseudoplatanus
  • Origin: Center and East Europe
  • Density: 610-680 Kg/m3
