About Rosewood Guitars

A solid rosewood acoustic is the Rolls-Royce of guitars. With deep rich lows and detailed, sparkly highs, they fill the room with a lush, majestic tone.

Rosewood has what’s known as a ‘scooped’ tone which means it has less mid-range than it has low end and treble. This is the opposite of mahogany. which has a strong mid-range. This means that a rosewood acoustic guitar is very popular among singers because it compliments vocals nicely, providing a rich but unobtrusive accompaniment.

Because rosewood was always more expensive than mahogany, rosewood guitars have tended to have an air of prestigiousness which remains to this day. Martin's flagship guitars, the D-45 and D-28, are both solid rosewood; as are the 700 and 800 Series - the top of the Taylor Guitars. line. Gibson use rosewood less frequently but when they do they are often a ‘Deluxe’ model, like the Hummingbird Deluxe.

A selection of our rosewood guitars come included with either a hard case or gig bag.

 

Why Should I Choose a Rosewood Guitar?

  • A rosewood acoustic guitar provides a rich, clear sound
  • Perfect for singers
  • Prestigious history

Frequently Asked Questions about Rosewood Guitars

Question: What does rosewood sound like?
Rosewood has what’s known as a ‘scooped’ tone which means it has less mid-range than it has low end and treble.
Question: What style of player does rosewood suit?
Rosewood suits any player who prefers a lively, energetic sound. It is often favoured by singers because it nicely compliments their vocals.
Question: What makes Brazillian rosewood so highly regarded?
Brazilian rosewood is highly regarded for two reasons. Firstly, it sounds glorious - rich and piano-like. Secondly, and perhaps most importantly, is simply the mystique of it. Martin & Co realised Brazilian rosewood was becoming scarce as early as the mid-sixties and switched to Indian Rosewood in 1969. Brazilian rosewood then represents not just a quality tonewood but a clear dividing line between vintage acoustic guitars and modern acoustic guitars.
