Decision time, Cedar or Spruce.. which one should you choose?

The choice between cedar and spruce really comes down to what you want from your guitar and your playing style.

• Go for Cedar if:

  • You’re after a warm, mellow sound with plenty of midrange warmth.

  • You love playing with a delicate touch.

  • You appreciate a quick, responsive instrument that really reacts to your playing.

• Choose Spruce if:

  • You want a brighter, clearer sound with more volume and projection.

  • You like to play with dynamics, from soft fingerpicking to more aggressive strumming.

  • You need a guitar that can adapt to a variety of playing styles and settings.

Both woods have their unique qualities, and there’s no right or wrong choice – just what works best for you. If possible, try a few guitars made from both woods and see which one feels the most natural in your hands. That way, you’ll get a sense of the sound and the vibe each wood brings to the table (pun intended!).

In the end, it’s all about finding the sound that resonates with you. Whichever you choose, you’ll be making music with an instrument that’s truly a reflection of your style. Happy playing, and enjoy the journey of discovering the perfect guitar for you! 🎸🎶
