Santa Cruz OM Grand Shootout: Mahogany vs Rosewood

[@LonesomeTraveler]

I prefer the Rosewood one, the Mahogany one sounds brighter, which I wouldn't have expected. Thanks for the vid!

Just heard this. Of course your touch is superb. The Adi edge is noticeable. Great that they are matched maker and size.

Guess I'm a mahogany kind a guy. Great to sing along with, so expressive.

thanks for sharing

Rosewood with Spruce top is to me a better sounding guitar. Both sound great

Nice job John.

Thanks, George!

Ah, wish I could have sent you mine with Italian / Cocobolo adirondack braces to throw in the comparison... I did a demo of african blackwood/adi vs mine in Austin , hard to beat adirondack for me. I love the mahogany most of the time

Thank you for this video. Both instruments sound great. I'm curious about what strings were used - perhaps the Santa Cruz Parabolic strings?

[@maplestreetguitars]

Thanks, Mark! Yes, both guitars had the Santa Cruz strings. Those are my preferred strings on all of my guitars. Love them! John

[@MrJohanable]

I’ll take them both! 😂
