The most common woods used are these: for the top (where the f-holes are), spruce, as straight-grained as possible, and slow-growth (which means that the growth rings will be very close together, hopefully not more than 1 mm apart). For the sides (or ribs, as they are called) and the back, Maple. This maple is usually selected for its beauty, showing stripes, or flame figure, and sometimes even bird's-eye figure. These are the most common, but sometimes the sides and back are made from willow or poplar, with cheaper instruments often employing laminates instead of solid, carved wood.
