Spruce is a favorite guitar tonewood due to its strength and tone. It improves as the guitar ages and will develop additional overtones, which is why older acoustic guitars often have a fuller voice than new ones. Cedar is common among classical guitarists and has a bright sound that tends to stay the same. Mahogany and koa are warmer sounding with less projection than spruce.
