The lighter feel, subtler grain and cheaper cost of Poplar is perfect for affordable instruments. Netherless it is used to built some high quality guitars and basses.
Brazilian Cherry / Jatoba (fingerboard) is a tonewood very similar to Pau Ferro. Its warm tone is tempered by a snappy attack. In between Rosewood and Maple.
