I completely agree with Bob Taylor. It is not that the tonewoods don't make a difference, but there are so many variables and the tonewood is just one component. Personally I think what the luthier does with the top (Stiffness, bracing etc) has the greatest impact on tone. All the other variables contribute as well.

Bob's pallet guitar is a great example of how construction has a major impact
