Sitka Spruce is the traditionnal choice for top wood on most acoustic guitars. Offering combination of strength and elasticity which translates into a broad dynamic range, Sitka Spruce has a punchy direct sound, yielding crisp articulation and allowing for versatile playing, from dynamic strumming, flatpicking or fingerpicking.

The Martin VTS (Vintage Tone System) is a proprietary torrefaction process. VTS acts like a time machine. It allows Martin’s team to recreate not only the warm visual aesthetics of a vintage guitar, but also reproduce the tones previously reserved for vintage instruments.

Indian Rosewood is one of the most popular and traditional guitar woods. It takes the basic sonic thumbprint of Mahogany (strong midrange) and expands it in both directions of bass and treble.
Rosewood sounds deeper in the low end and brighter/sparkly on the top end. It appears to be more scooped in the middle than mahogany.
