Roasted Maple Neck

■About Roasted Maple

Roasted maple is a type of wood that has been heat-treated at high temperatures to evaporate moisture and oils, artificially mimicking the appearance of wood that has aged naturally. Wood that has undergone this aging process is less prone to warping and twisting. When used for the neck, this not only enhances stability but also improves the sound, producing a rich, natural resonance and a mature, vintage-like tone. While this wood is typically used in high-end models, we have successfully made it available at an affordable price point.

*Please note that the degree of color change due to the roasting process and the grain pattern of the maple wood may vary from piece to piece.
