Over a decade ago, Taylor introduced the guitar world to a sustainable tonewood known as ovangkol. An African relative of rosewood, it's a great sounding wood that shares many of rosewood's tonal properties, with a slightly fuller midrange and a top end that's not quite as bright as maple.
What Is Ovangkol Wood? The Ovangkol -- also known as Mozambique, Amazoue, Amazique or Shedua wood -- is a small- to medium-size hardwood tree native to tropical West Africa. Other exotic wood species in the genus Guibourtia include Bubinga and Tiete rosewood. Where it's common, Ovangkol is used in flooring, cabinetry and furniture.
