Sound Pure's Take
A whole lotta guitar! This is the kind of guitar that you can really scare your friends with by sneaking up behind them and playing an open G chord. From a player's perspective, the full 5" body and offset soundhole give you an incredibly detailed, full sound that almost feels like the guitar has its own monitor system. Few guitars I've ever heard can come close to this level of overtone content and sustain, and if you are looking for an instrument that can take a simple chord or melody and bring it to life, this is it! The richness of the harmonic content and the sheer volume and sustain of this instrument make it feel like an orchestra in your hands. Try it for yourself and you'll see what I mean!

Despite its name, Port Orford Cedar is a member of the cypress family and not a true cedar. It falls tonally between spruce and cedar, leaning toward a warm spruce top in sound and stiffness.
Koa
A member of the acacia family, Koa grows only in Hawaii. Flamed Koa is a gorgeous tonewood displaying some "Mahogany like" properties. Clean and bright with a rich low end.
