The tonewood we supply is used by a guitar manufacturer/ luthier in the building of different parts of guitars, mandolin or violin and other string instruments.
Different parts of Musical Instruments that Gemwood manufactures:
BACK & SIDE:
Wood is the life of a guitar, the source of its sound and beauty. Wood is one of the first steps in generating the guitar’s sound and creating an ideal tone. That’s why wood that
is used in the construction of a guitar is called ‘Tonewood’ Different woods give off different sounds, which add to your guitar's ambience, tone, durability, and ability to age with time.
The back and sides of a musical instrument will affect the tone. The backs and sides of virtually all guitars are made of hardwood. Click on the wood species available with us above to know more about it.

We can supply finger boards in Ebony, Rosewood or other tonewoods according to customer specifications.
NECK
The neck of the guitar is the area of the instrument which is concentrated upon a great deal because the guitarist puts his fingers on various places on the neck, in order to create different notes. The neck of the guitar adjoins the "body" of the instrument.
We can supply neck plates in Ebony, Rosewood or other tonewoods according to customer specifications
BRIDGE BLANKS
The strings of the guitar run from the tuning pegs, over the nut, down the neck, over the body, over the sound hole, and are anchored at a piece of hardware attached to the body of the guitar, called a "bridge".
We can supply bridge blanks in Ebony, Rosewood or other tonewoods according to customer specifications
HEAD STOCK
At the top of the guitar is the "head stock", a general term which describes the part of the guitar attached to the slimmer neck of the instrument. On the headstock are "tuners", which is used to adjust the pitch of each of the strings on the guitar.
