Another salvo in the tone wood debate...

Got to love the analytical types when they study something as subjective as music and a musician’s inspiration with an instrument, which often develops over time. I’m glad they could turn centuries of instrument construction on its ear with such an in depth, lengthy, and thorough study. :confused:
 
This is why I play carbon fiber acoustics because all the matters is that it sounds good.

I'd play carbon fiber electrics if they weren't so rare/incredibly expensive.

To me, the structural element of wood is a pain the butt because of how it's affected by humidity and temperature.

I've had carbon fiber acoustics for about 4 yrs now and have never ever had to adjust anything on them. I just change strings.

Some companies, like Emerald, can combine carbon fiber with veneers to get the best of both worlds like this example, which is actually mine (and I love it).

This study has been going on in Europe for a couple of years now.
The aim is to find out whether local woods can be used in stead of tropical woods.
Here they came to the conclusion that there is a difference in sound but they couldn't say which type of wood sounded better.
