I made an observation and wanted to see what you guys think of it.
The ob...IMO...dark colored woods (mahogany, walnut, bubinga) sound deeper/warmer/richer than light colored woods (maple, ash, birch, beech etc.)
Looking for your opinions about that.
Also, I have a Stratocaster, it's made from alder. The body has a nasty dime sized chip in it and I can see the the color of the alder, which is about as dark as walnut.
Ever hear of anyone making alder drums? I'm curious if they would make a sound like their other darker cousins. I'm in love with the darker woods especially for toms and bass and what the hell snares too, and wondered if alder would be similar.
Looking for opinions about darker compared to lighter woods, and if anyone has heard an alder drum.
Thanks. Butt in the front.
