I'm thinking of getting a Timberline T20 (all mahogany). My biggest reservation is the mahogany top. I'm used to spruce tops, and I wonder if the mahogany will be a lot quieter and less dynamic. The all hog 6-string guitars I've played have less dynamic range than the spruce tops.
I have listened to Jamie Dupuis play his Timberlines, with various hard wood tops, and they sound plenty dynamic and responsive. But I've never heard him play it live.
So maybe the recording sounds better than in real life.
Any one have any input on this--any experience with all mahogany harp guitars vs spruce tops?
Thanks,
Matt
