Description

Discover the exquisite beauty and unparalleled tone of our 8-pack of AA Light Quilt/Light Curly Sitka Spruce Dread tops, specifically selected for discerning luthiers. These figured soundboards offer a unique visual dimension and exceptional acoustic performance, perfect for crafting instruments with captivating aesthetics and superior resonance. Each Sitka Spruce Dread top combines natural aging with distinctive figure patterns to deliver instruments that sing with clarity and sustain.

This 8-pack features AA Light Quilt Sitka Spruce Dread soundboards, where light quilt originates from the same block, log, and tree as light curl—the difference lies in cut orientation. The quilt figured boards are cut slightly across the curly lumps, capturing enhanced figure detail just off vertical grain. This approach creates a striking third-dimensional visual depth that photographs cannot fully capture. You are welcome to request a custom mix of quilt and curl when ordering. Simply mention your preference in the comments section during checkout.

These tops are produced with the finest tonewood fiber available globally, procured from salvage-sourced old-growth Sitka Spruce timber with centuries of natural seasoning.

Enhanced Resonance and Figured Aesthetics

Our AA Light Quilt/Light Curly Sitka Spruce Dread tops deliver an acoustic experience that transcends the ordinary while providing stunning visual appeal. Sourced from naturally aged old-growth timber, these soundboards possess an exceptional stiffness-to-weight ratio, translating into superior projection and a broad, dynamic range for your instruments. The unique light quilt and curly figure, resulting from specific cuts across the wood’s natural growth patterns, contributes remarkable acoustic properties beyond visual impact. This natural aging process creates wood fiber with enhanced resonant characteristics, unmatched by plantation-grown alternatives. Every Sitka Spruce Dread soundboard ensures every note resonates with clarity and sustain, making these ideal figured tops for your next build.
