Cedar soundboard question
Guys,
I need help here.
I have a couple of nice ouds with unfinished spruce soudboards.
They sound great.
But what about unfinished cedar tops? Is it ik to leave cedar unfinished? Is it ok in terms of sound and maybe surface hardness?
Cheers

with a nice brownish tan whis is awosome. Michael does not usually finish the cedar tops.
