What are the differences beteween maple rosewood and ebony wood on guitars?
im not sure what wood to get for my next guitar because i have a maplewood guitar now and realized i dont like it as much as i thought and when i tried ebony i really like it and never played rosewood that much. I dont know what to do.
At different periods in time certain woods became more rare or less rare. At the moment rosewood is a really common wood for making guitars, it's a strong and light wood. Maple again is strong and fairly light but it's used slightly less in guitar making so a guitar with a maple fretboard is worth slightly more. Thats pretty much it. With maple or rosewood it will still play and sound the same. Maple is just a little bit smoother than rosewood but if you fret correctly you can't really feel the difference.
Ebony is a little bit heavier than rosewood and maple which has advantages and disadvantages. First of all it's heavier, obviously, but the extra weight gives a guitar more sustain.
Mass produced guitars generally use rosewood for the fretboard and more expensive guitars are a bit mroe likely to use maple but only if the designer and buyer prefer to look.
