Thuja plicata
Used for decades as a soundboard material on classical guitars, Cedar is also popular among steel-string enthusiasts. Cedar is a "soft" wood known for producing a "warm," mellow tone, one whose overtones are evenly distributed, rather than concentrated on the highs and lows, making it especially suitable for fingerstyle playing. Cedar's light brown color also lends a guitar a visual warmth that many players find appealing.
Available on the 500 Series, 700 Series, Nylon Series, and select limited editions.
