If you’ve ever looked through guitar community forum posts you’ll come across the topic of which wood sounds better. A lot of people have been saying that it makes no difference, while expert ears stand by their claim that the type of wood does. Well a new study has shown that wood density does affect the sound quality! Since the study was done on the violin, an instrument with a resonating cavity, it could be applied to acoustic guitar. I’m willing to take the leap forward and say it does have some affect on the sound quality of a solid body electric guitar. So density does affect sound performance!
