AAA Malaysian Blackwood Acoustic Guitar Sides

Overview AAA Malaysian Blackwood Acoustic Guitar Sides:

Malaysian Blackwood is a premium tonewood that is well suited for all guitar types. Denser than most Dalbergias, its glassy, sustained tone is often compared to that of African blackwood. However, it is slightly less brittle and, unlike the former, most sets have attractive dark streaks (called landscape or spiderwebbing), similar to those found in ziricote or cocobolo to name a few examples. The colouring ranges from an intense brown with reddish tones to a greyish green with many shades, crossed by dark lines that provide heterogeneity and appeal to the piece. In addition, in some cases there will also be a light pinkish colour coming from the centre of the trunk. 

What are the differences between Malaysian Blackwood grades?

In the Malaysian Blackwood AAA grade you will find pieces that often feature the highly sought-after landscape and spider-webbing patterns and that only feature a few woods of exotic origin. In addition to these patterns, these pieces always stand out for their beauty and will be the focal point of your next instrument.
