Let the little guy talk he seems to be more knowledgeble and a lot less rude. The big guy keeps trying to talk over him like he can't share the mic. Like the little guy isn't allowed to speak in his presence and contradicts himself with everything he says sometimes in the same sentence. The little guy stays more focused, to the point, and doesn't contradict himself with every other word. He is patient, polite and respectful of others and doesn't talk so loudly as to drowned out everyone else because he likes to hear the sound of his own voice because he thinks he is so charming and much better than everyone else in the room.

(I'm probably going to sound like I'm just repeating what's already been said LOL) I play a lot of bluegrass music, and definitely agree that the rosewood definitely has a warmer tone. And the mahogany had more clarity, especially on the high end. I play some lead, but for the majority of my life, I've only played rosewood guitars. But bought a mahogany guitar a couple of years ago, and was suprised at the tone. It has better clarity, but still has a good low end sound without it being overpowering. Great video! It's your best one yet (or like Jeremy says) until you make the next one! 😅😅🤣🤣😅😆

You missed an opportunity to have just your shirt change for a second or two or a hat come and go between the guitars changing. That would have been funny since the guitars were changing back and forth so much and yet you hardly moved at all.😁

I guess you could hear the difference a bit better by doing fingerpickings. I agree with you, there' s something more bass response, more low end with rosewood, depends on the guitar of course but generally it' s so. So this is a reason why a lot of fingerpickers prefer mahagony, a bit more mids response, less bass and nice trebles, not too sharp. And it' s also a question of taste. A beautiful mellow brown mahagony or a deep brown rosewood. My favorite guitars are a Martin 000-18 and a Martin D-18 GE. My next guitar should be a parlor size but this time with rosewood back and sides. These Boucher guitars are sounding amazing, both. Hard to decide.

I've played rosewood guitars for years and decided I would like to have a mahogany. My two rosewood guitars are martins hd-28 and d-35 so I tried the d-18 then the Gibson j-45 which I bought. The j-45 gets most playing time now. You are not going to dislike either. I play mostly at church and the mahogany blends perfectly with the piano but like I said either will do. Note there are also differences in types of mahogany that makes a difference also.

Jimmy Collette The difference between rosewood and mahogany are the mic issues. Rosewood has alot of overtones that make it a nightmare to fit into a mix. Most studio recordings are made with mahogany. You can add bass to mahogany as it doesn't have alot of overtones. Mahogany fits nicely with other instruments into a mix. For live solo performance one can really boost the bass frequencies for a huge sound, too. Using electronic systems is pretty much a wash. Just depends on the system. The best I've ever heard are the ones that are mounted in Cole Clark guitars. Cole Clark is an Australian brand little known in the USA. Ben Harper uses one. I have one as well. The electronics are the best in the world. Never heard a better system. For me rosewood is great for the living room and solo singer-songwriter type recordings w/an upfight bass, brush drums and a lead instrument. Rosewood's sound is beautiful. Mahogany is pretty utilitarian by comparison.

I've been searching for one that will not chime when I dig into it harder for loudness, especially in a jam where 28s tend to drown me out. 🙂

Used to sell Martins in the early-to-mid '70s ... We had a REALLY old D-35 with Brazillian rosewood that was as thick and warm sounding as any guitar you have ever heard. And I have played some old Martins that were mahogany that were very rich in the bottom end, but maintained the crisp top end that the old D-35 did not have. My opinion is that rosewood will sound thicker brand new; but long term, that mahogany really is the best.

Couldn't really hear much of a difference, if any........you should have played exactly the same parts on each guitar....this just shows that Bouchers are so good it doesn't matter what the back and sides are...it's almost all in the top guys! It's like splitting hairs over two bottles of wine from the same batch. I have a Boucher as well as quite a few high end guitars and seriously it really doesn't matter much to me if I grab a mahogany or rosewood one....there is a very minor difference in how I feel the vibe but that could be because my guitars are from five different builders, but I don't think anyone listening can hear the difference. I notice it more on my classical guitars, actually, where my two rosewood ones definitely have more bottom end than my mahogany and cypress ones, but actually I like all four of them. If you play well the back and sides really don't factor much into it methinks. I do agree that when I sing and am primarily strumming chords, I usually pick my rosewood dread.....usually, not always....it does seem to have a real gutsy bottom end punch, almost overpowering at times.

I own both tone woods, and find the rosewood I have to be careful not to over play it, it’s a Martin HD28v, while my O18 mahogany is more articulate and sings. ‘51 Gibson J50 mahogany on the other hand is more dull, and suited for blues or old folk. They all have their own voice, FWIW.

Bocher-I don’t think I’m spelling the name of the Guitar right and I apologize. I have heard several people say that they would rather have this guitar than a Martin. In another video that was demoing one of these guitars, I noticed in hearing it, the same problem that the guitar that the man was playing in the introduction has and that is to me that the action is too low because I’m hearing a lot of buzzing and that I don’t like to hear I don’t find that pleasant. I don’t believe it is because he has failed to put on the SEO accurately as I heard this in the last video as well with this brand, I think it would probably outdo Martin if it was only set up correctly or perhaps there needs to be a nut and a bridge adjustment so that it rings clear .

I think a lot depends on the top. A good quality cedar over mahogany and spruce over rosewood in a size that fits your preferences will cover pretty much all the acoustic tonal bases you'll ever need to cover with only 2 guitars. Personally I like OM sized acoustics for comfort, sound, and versatility. Both of those are nice guitars, but I'd want a cedar top on the hog model to justify getting both :)

People were saying that Rosewood guitars are two full sounding, and the singers have to compete against the Rosewood. They think Rosewood is better for flat picking and lead stuff. It’s just funny because we all have different opinions and views on things lol.

Now, your graphic showing firearms is misleading. Why didn't the instruments have firearms holstered for the shootout? Oh, useful commentary? OK, I am partial to Adirondack Spruce / Madagascar Rosewood. I like Mahogany, but I tend to go with Maple for its articulation as a preference. The East Indian Rosewood instrument was very easy to pick out for its especially full sound. The Mahogany guitar sounded very nice, too. To differ from other comments, I enjoyed your playful banter. Keep up the great quality videos being produced.

i prefer the punch of the mahogany, but i got such a good deal on a used eastman ac720ce that i went with the rosewood because i really wanted a cutaway guitar with a built in pickup and a dread body and they discontinued this model. it sounds good and plays easy so i am happy with it. does eastman make a cutaway with a pickup and dread body with mahogany back and sides? if so, what is the model #? thanks.

Short answer is "yes" 😂. Both models can be great for alternate tuning.

I'd really like to see this comparison on a spectral analyzer to actually SEE where the differences are. It's easy for one person to say one thing and the next person to say just the opposite.

Great comparison and format. First time here. Respectively, I just found Jeremy interrupted a bit much with the humour which stopped the flow but otherwise it was a good quality informative video. Ps, I liked the fullness of the Rosewood.

I'm a total nube at this. What would different strings do to the resonance of both guitars? In other words, would "magic" strings change the sound profiles enough to increase the resonance of the mahogany or the depth of the rosewood? Thanks

Different strings do make a difference in sound but it is not a dramatic difference. Thanks for watching!

To me, the notes on mahogany guitars bloom faster than rosewood. So on fast lead lines, the tempo exceeds the bloom rate with rosewood, while the mahogany is able to keep up.

I have a Martin D-35., among others. The one thing that I noticed with the D-35 was when I opened the case, the aroma of roses. This is a great match up for comparing the two hard tone woods. Thank you.

Thought the same. A is the rosewood and B is the mahogany. I prefer rosewood because it sounds richer and fuller to my ears. But mahogany is dang good, too.
