That's interesting... does it really affect tone? I always thought the maple/rosewood thing wasdown to 1) playablility and 2) aethetics. Does it really affect tone? I find it hard to believe (unlike, of course the main body of the guitar where the mass of the tonewood has a big effect on tone)

I'm a new player. What I'm hearing here is that the choice of maple or rosewood is pretty much up to personal preference (rosewood seems to be winning by a slim margin in the poll), but one thing everyone seems to agree on is that each has its merits.

What are the comparative differences between the two? I would think that the choice of one over the other affects playability more than sound, but I don't know.

How do they differ?

Thanks, all.
i like rose wood becaus of colol and tone/ thats the reason i put the pool up
