Here's a link to a walnut/redwood guitar sound clip.
Keep in mind this clip is of our smallest model, a P-1 parlor:

Hope the link works,

Steve, that parlor has the strongest bass I think I’ve ever heard from a guitar that size. Many others I have played sounded very thin. What a lovely sound. Something larger should sound even more rich and full, this one should be a gem!
