Which Wood Is For You?
Mountain Rythym proudly utilizes environmentally friendly ISO 14011 certified lumber.

Pine

  • Light weight makes this wood very "playable"
  • Nice warm tone
  • Moderate to long sustain, especially in the low end

Maple

  • Powerful projection, crisp high end response
  • Clear, even bass tone at all volumes
  • Very strong open tones

Mahogany

  • Dark, powerful low end, even at low volumes
  • Long, clear sustain
  • Very even response throughout the range

Ash

  • Powerful projection, with lots of cutting power
  • Shorter, sharper decay providing greater punch with less effort
  • Tremendous clarity throughout the tuning ranges, and at all volumes Siam

Oak

  • Highly durable wood
  • A warm sound similar to Mahogany with a bit of the punch of Maple
  • A very efficient wood in translating the "stroke" to "sound"
