Description

Discover the unparalleled beauty and acoustic potential of our Full curly Sitka Spruce guitar tops.

AA Full Curly Classical Sitka Spruce Guitar Tops

Most two-piece bookset boards are cut at approximately 7.5″ x 23″, though patterning may vary across the width and length. These figured Sitka Spruce tops will pattern per half with the following ranges:

  • Lower bout: 7.25-7.5″
  • Waist: 4.5″
  • Upper bout: 5.55-5.75″
  • Length: 19-20.25″

These dimensions represent the classical guitar patterns we source. If your measurements approach these specifications, we recommend contacting us before ordering to ensure compatibility with your specific build requirements.

Enhanced Resonance and Projection for Classical Instruments

Crafted from centuries-old timber, Full curly Sitka Spruce tops deliver an exceptional stiffness-to-weight ratio, crucial for the superior projection and dynamic range demanded by classical guitars. The natural aging process, spanning an average of 400 years, transforms the wood fiber, imbuing it with enhanced resonant properties far surpassing those found in younger, plantation-grown alternatives. Luthiers appreciate the rich, complex overtones and clear articulation that this figured tonewood contributes to the voice of a classical instrument.
