There used to be a video of Paul tapping on the different woods that he used for necks to show the tonal differences

Yep. Before becoming a PRS guitar geek, I never would have thought that banging on a piece of wood would produce a tone like that.

That's cool. Wondering how expensive Honduran rosewood costs these days for such beautiful tones?

I have a box like that w/three notes. It’s rosewood. The guys that made it were the drummer and percussionist from Project Object (a Zappa tribute band).

For anyone who hasn’t seen it, this TED talk by Paul is fascinating and covers his theories on tone.
