tonebucket Posted March 31, 2003 Report Share Posted March 31, 2003 Can anyone tell me exactly what basswood is?? What type of wood it is and any other info relevant??????????? (Thanks in anticipation - any help would be good, as I am building an RG style guitar) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaulNeeds Posted March 31, 2003 Report Share Posted March 31, 2003 Also known, apparently as American Lime, it comes form North America and Canada, and "has an even texture, cream - white in colour. Easily worked with using hand and machine tools." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
westhemann Posted March 31, 2003 Report Share Posted March 31, 2003 i find that basswood has almost no mids,so is great for hard rock,heavy metal,but it is not at all sweet sounding.and also when you finish it no grainfiller is needed.
