Some very nasty sounding soundboards have been built of very nice Sitka. The material is just part of the equation, and anything can be ruined by poor application. I have an interesting opportunity in the works. Along with the D I'm re-designing and remanufacturing this summer, I have another D action to rebuild concurrently. I'm putting Wurzen hammers in both, for comparison between original and redesigned scales and boards. I expect it to be quite educational.
