“MTD Handmade American bodies and necks are ergonomically carved to allow comfortable access to the extended scale bass. In general, ash (medium weight) has more growl and is more aggressive, poplar bodies have more punch, mahogany is more piano like with a slightly darker overall voice. Alder makes a very warm, big sounding, punchy bass, slightly compressed. Adding a top helps to focus the low end. A hard top tends to create a quicker response with more bite and definition while a soft top will tend to round out the voice.”MTD官网上关于琴体贴面搭配的臆断文字

最近新入了把 Avadore body 的535,还在路上
Avadore已经禁止在市面流通,Tobias先生评价说这种木头的声音非常的均衡,加上我的偶像之一的David Dyson曾经的MTD也是Avadore body + Wenge neck这个搭配,于是一直在找合适的Avadore body的MTD。
至于alder, ash 的body,我反而是觉得比tulipwood见到的多。。。maple neck在后期也较受欢迎。。。MTD最贵的AG系列其实也是alder body + maple neck的组合。。。我帮朋友买回的MTD里面也不乏ash body,以及maple neck 这样的配置。。。只是说一提到MTD,对这个牌子有了解的人第一印象都是那个 wenge combo + tulip/maple burl or myrtle burl 的组合
不过MTD除了这个经典组合之外,还有一些独家的组合也让人印象深刻,譬如我刚提到的avadore body,以及black limba body 搭配 wenge combo的组合,还有一组很怪异的组合,后来被Fodera学走并大量使用,那就是 ash body + ash neck 的组合。第一家用ash做neck的,虽然我没有考证过,但是我碰到的MTD年份是比Fodera要早。
