The Sept. 2003 issue of Acoustic Guitar had an article on Cockburn and gives the details of his Manzer. It's a European spruce top with Indian rosewood back...
Yes, Linda Mazer who I believe started out with Jean Larrivee back in the 70's. Bruce's two main squeezes these days are, yes East Indian rosewood back and...

so, i would like everyone's opinion, especially you acoustic fingerstylists out there... maple vs. rosewood back/sides... pro's? cons? what do you like best...
When I had my guitar built, I chose Brazelan rosewood. Rosewood is not as sharp as Maple, and not as mellow as Mahogany. I am very happy with the choice. My 12...

Hey thanks for the good info Joel, and Professir. i will say that i cannot personally stand the sound of ovations, and I always attributed that to the plastic...
I have no expertise to ground my thinking, but I've always wondered how much the back and sides really have to do with the overall sound of the guitar. What...
I have owned Martin guitars and also some lesser brands. A few years ago I was shopping around for guitars and played many different brands. I settled on a...
Spencer - Sounds like you have me pegged.. I have been coveting the 614CE and 814CE for YEARS, in fact this is the root of my question i have posed to the...
I think that if you want a bright, sparkling sound like Cockburn's, you'll want to go with rosewood. Mahogany has a much mellower tone. I find the nice thing...
Adam, I would be very suspisious of advise that promotes no difference in sound from the back and sides of a guitar. (or, that states the Ovations do not sound...
Well... I've been a lurker here for some time now and though this would be a good time to pipe up. I am certainly not a great player by any means or an...
John - Not only am i not laughing, I know the guitar - a FG-335 if I am not mistaken? Got mine in abut '83 (although i think its an '81) and I still have...
Well, my acoustic is a 2001 Taylor 414ce, which I really love. It's got the ovangkol back and sides...which is said to be similar in tone to rosewood. It's a...
I use the Koa for anything that comes to mind, but mostly for instumental fingerstyle pieces, Foxglove and Sunrise on the Mississippi, because they are both in...
I've found that my taste has changed over time, more than once, so it's all what sounds and feels best to you at the time, keeping in mind you may change it...
Wow, thats good info. Well, i definitely love my maple 12 but after reading all these, i am definitely starting to lean more towards rosewood. At least it ...
I've always hated the sound of Ovations, and still do except for one Ovation I played last year, which sounded great. It's the only one I've ever heard that...
