Overview AA Curly Maple Violin Backs:

Few parts of an instrument are more beautiful than a curly maple violin back. This highly prized wood has been used for centuries in bowed string instruments, virtually without exception. The reason is simple: maple is for all its properties (physical, aesthetic, tonal) the best choice for multiple parts of the instrument. Add to this the incredible look it gets once varnished and you will understand why it is so successful.

European maple - Acer pseudoplatanus - is a light-colored wood, with golden reflections that intensify when oxidized. It is a wood with no appreciable grain, which in many cases eliminates the need to use a filler. It is easy to work despite its hardness (although it requires sharp tools) and a bright and attractive finish can be achieved simply by using a scraper or planer, without even needing sandpaper. It is undoubtedly one of the most pleasant woods to work with.

In the AA grade backs you will find pieces with regular flaming, uniform and without blotches on a large part of their surface. These backs are often used in medium-high level instruments. In the end, it is the quality of the wood combined with the skill of the artisan what makes the difference.
