So something I've been wondering about- perhaps someone could explain this to me. Say you are building an LP style guitar with a mahogany body and neck. If you had a blank large enough, would you build both from the same piece of wood for consistency and a good pairing, or would it make more sense to build a body from a less dense piece and a neck from a very dense piece? This would yield good resonance in the body and more stability in the neck.
And something I haven't seen much of would be going so far as to mix similar sounding woods like African/ Honduran mahogany and Korina.
Does anyone have any thoughts, theoretical or from experience?
