The Truth About Tonewood: 52 Years of Experience | w. Roger Sadowsky

Join Roger Sadowsky, founder of Sadowsky Guitars, as he explores the significant influence of wood on the sound of solidbody instruments. Drawing on his 52 years of experience, Roger argues against the common belief that wood has no effect on the sound of electric guitars and basses. He explains how different types of wood, particularly in the fretboard, affect the tonal quality and playability of an instrument. Whether you prefer the bright, tight sound of a maple fretboard or the warm, sweet tones of rosewood, Roger provides valuable insights to help you understand how wood choice shapes the voice of your instrument. Roger shares anecdotes from his extensive career, including how fingerboard materials have solved specific tonal problems for top session players. He emphasises that the differences are more about what the player feels and hears than what the audience perceives, and how this affects the player's touch and style. This video is a must for anyone interested in the nuances of guitar and bass construction. Tune in to explore the world of wood and sound with one of the most respected luthiers in the business.
