Curly Ash Back Acoustic Guitar

Curly Ash Back Acoustic Guitar

This curly ash back is a great choice if you're after a tonewood with strong visual appeal and solid acoustic performance. It includes two pieces sized for acoustic guitar.

Curly ash stands out for its bold figuring and wavy grain, offering a nice balance between lightness and stiffness. These sets aren’t specifically graded but follow a medium standard: cracked, broken, or flawed pieces are excluded, so you're always working with healthy, reliable wood.

You may find variations in cut across different backs. Some are quarter sawn or figured, others may be partially flat sawn. While flat-sawn pieces are less stable, they can add stunning beauty to the finished instrument.
