Steel String Guitar Ambition
Back and Sides of Indian Rosewood

Actually, this steel string guitar is not different from our standard model Ambition. Nonetheless we present it here, because it is one of four steel string guitars which are identical, apart from the woods for back and sides. Indian Rosewood (Dalbergia Latifolia) serves us here as a basis for comparison of the sound quality of the more exotic woods Indian Walnut, Indian Silver Oak and Spalted Mango.

Indian Rosewood is one of the woods most commonly used for back and sides. The dark evenly grained wood yields a well-defined sound from the highest treble to the lowest bass. This steel string guitar is just incredibly powerful and assertive. Unfortunately, the export and import regulations for Indian Rosewood are becoming stringent and thus make it more rare and expensive.
