Honduras
Rosewood
Honduran Rosewood is renowned for its rich tonal depth, clarity, and sustain, making it a favorite among players who demand exceptional sound.
Its natural density and smooth grain produce a balanced tonal profile with warm lows, articulate mids, and sparkling highs. Perfect for both fingerstyle and dynamic strumming, Honduran Rosewood delivers a truly versatile and responsive playing experience.
During a talk by a wood scientist in Belgium some years ago I learned that from the scientific point of view Honduras rosewood is the best of the rosewoods as a tone wood Because of its combination of density, fiber structure and surface quality.
I don’t disagree in my experience. It may not be as pretty as some other rosewoods but it sure sounds great!

In 2004 George decided that a series of guitars similar to the original series but with a couple of upgrades would be great to offer to the players who wanted the best tuners you can get on the one hand, but also had a little more detailing in the appointments in general. So the 35 series was born.
