All-Wood Double Top
The All-Wood Double Top is our approach to modern soundboard construction.
While many contemporary double-top guitars use synthetic cores, this design is built entirely from carefully selected woods, allowing the instrument to retain the natural character, elasticity, and tonal complexity that define the traditional classical guitar.
By working exclusively with wood, the structure remains acoustically coherent: every layer of the soundboard vibrates as part of the same organic material. The result is a sound that combines the immediacy and projection associated with modern concert instruments with the warmth, depth, and color of the Spanish guitar tradition.
Voicing the Soundboard
The soundboard is constructed as a lightweight laminated structure formed by two thin wooden plates. Through careful control of thickness, grain orientation, and internal support, the system allows the top to achieve high rigidity with very low mass. This balance increases responsiveness while preserving a broad dynamic range and a rich palette of tone colors.
Unlike synthetic sandwich constructions, the all-wood structure evolves naturally with the instrument. As the wood continues to age and settle over time, the guitar maintains the living acoustic qualities that have always been central to the classical guitar.
