Mediterranean Cypress, Cupressus sempervirensMediterranean Cypress has been the traditional wood used in flamenco guitars for decades. Interestingly enough, the species was introduced not because of it’s distinct tonal profile, but because it was cheap, plentiful and was easy to work.
However, that being said, Cypress is a wonderful tonewood producing guitars with a rich full tonal profile. And while it hasn’t been traditionally used in steel string guitars, it is capable of producing a very fine steel string instrument as well.
