Sourced from rare, pre-1963 old-growth Sitka spruce soundboard timber, this non-figured tonewood is meticulously prepared for professional luthiers crafting high-end flat top instruments. Experience the superior resonance and clarity that only centuries-old reclaimed Sitka spruce can provide for your harp guitar builds and acoustic projects.
This Grade A Dyer Harp guitar soundboard features non-figured wood cut from a tree that blew down prior to 1963. The material displays nice grain characteristics with some occasional dime-size bear claw starts. The sequential cutting of these boards allows for optimal utilization across multiple instrument builds.
Enhanced Resonance of Old-Growth Sitka Spruce
These Grade A Sitka spruce soundboards are meticulously selected for their exceptional acoustic properties, delivering outstanding resonance for your Dyer Harp guitar projects. The natural aging of pre-1963 old-growth timber contributes to an exceptional stiffness-to-weight ratio, translating into superior projection, rich overtones, and dynamic range essential for the complex voice of a harp guitar. The Sitka soundboard material’s enhanced clarity and sustain characteristics allow every note to resonate with remarkable fidelity and dimensional response.
