What!!?? Mahogany is an afterthought? Also-ran? "Other top?"
Just mildly kidding.
Koa topped GC: kept the bone; rounded it out, sounded like a bell, sustain ++
Spruce topped 355: kept the bone; sustain and separation / clarity
Mahogany topped Baby Taylor(s) (2): kept the bone; increased the overall quality of the tone significantly
Mahogany topped Alvarez entry-level: kept the bone; increased the overall quality
Mahogany topped Taylors: went with WAHI rather than bone because Bob said the mahogany could handle the increased trebles; kept the WAHI - increased sustain, "color" or the tone, "roundness" of the notes; decreased "sharpness" of tone
Rainsong OM: I have the bone but haven't replaced the Tusq yet. I'm expecting much the same - increased sustain, roundness of note, bell-like quality.
Cheers,
Phil
