Description

Discover the exceptional acoustic foundation for your next instrument with our AAA Flat-top Mandolin non-figured Sitka soundboards. Sourced from the world’s finest salvage-recovered old-growth Sitka Spruce, these tonewoods offer unparalleled resonance and stability for professional luthiers and discerning builders seeking superior acoustic performance.

These soundboard tops are produced with the finest tonewood fiber available globally, procured from salvage-sourced old-growth Sitka Spruce. Designed for flat-top mandolin and baritone ukulele construction, each set represents centuries of natural seasoning and acoustic maturation.

Dimensional Guidelines: Most 2-piece bookmatched sets are cut 6+ inches wide by 15-16 inches long, with patterning dimensions (per half) as follows: lower bout width 5-5.75 inches, waist 3.25-3.5 inches, upper bout 3.75-3.875 inches, and length 13-14 inches. These specifications accommodate standard baritone ukulele patterns. If your project measurements approach these dimensions, we recommend contacting our team before ordering to ensure optimal compatibility.

Enhanced Acoustic Resonance: The Heart of Your Soundboard

Crafted from centuries-old, naturally seasoned timber, our AAA Flat-top Mandolin Sitka tops are renowned for their superior resonant properties. The dense yet lightweight old-growth Sitka Spruce exhibits an exceptional stiffness-to-weight ratio, translating into outstanding sound projection, vibrant overtones, and a broad dynamic range. This naturally aged tonewood ensures your mandolin will possess a rich, complex voice with incredible sustain and clarity—qualities that plantation-grown woods simply cannot replicate.
