National Reso-Phonic Guitars Unlike acoustic guitars, where the vibration of the wooden body creates the sound, in a resonator instrument the body acts as a speaker cabinet. When the strings are plucked, the
vibration is tranmitted through the saddle to the resonator. The resonator, or speaker cone, then amplifies that vibration.

Daedalus/daidalos, the artful craftsman:
In Greek legend, the skillful artist and inventor who
built the labyrinth in Crete for King Minos to trap the
Minotaur. He was later imprisoned in it with his son
Icarus: they escaped by means of wings that he had
made. Mythologists suppose that Daedalus is not
really a proper name but the common symbol of all
the first architects, craftsmen and sculptors who
worked principally with wood.

Traditionaly only a few types of wood are used for
guitarbuilding. The typical guitar has a spruce top,
sides and back made of rosewood, mahogany or
maple, a neck made of mahogany or maple and a
fingerboard made of ebony or rosewood. Yet this
choice isn't compelling dictated, other wood types
give excellent guitars too. Additionaly increasing
shortage of certain tropical wood types force to look
after alternatives.For back and sides: cherry, oak, ash
... all is possible.
Wood for guitarbuilding should be almost free of
defects, straight grained and beautiful too... from Martin's Guitarbuilding pages
