i love the look of that guitar. the sitka looks good, and the flat top just gives it a different look. but i have a question....how does the spruce sound as a top compared to maple?

wow....hyunsu....you've come a long way. Your guitars have always been impressive, but i'm awed by your work ethic. It shows not only in your guitar building, but your words as well. You have grown tremendously in your english, and your guitars look better every time you make a new one. Keep it up, and i'm sure you'll be doing this at whatever level you'd like, professional or hobbyist. Great job. Neal

I love watching the progress of all the great guitars you build hyunsu, and follow all your posts closely.

All the pictures you've posted really helped me get my first project underway and it's inspirational to see your work.

Great stuff

but my choice is good for sound..

many people dont understand it..

some time i'am angry some people..

maple and mahogany is general good material for electric guitar..

this kind of man say to me..

maple & mahogany neck is good but another material is not good..

and it is cheap material and only replace wood for general tone wood..

my basic wood selection rule is simple .. knock wood. and check wood's stableish..

have nice day..
