This OM model guitar is made with a carpathian spruce top from you, and sounds (in my humble opinion) very, very good. I appreciate the high level of service from your company, and the high quality of the woods delivered. Keep up the good work.
Best wishes,

Carpathian Tonewoods was easy to deal with. Responsive to requests for photos and pricing and quick to ship once payment was made. The wood I received was spectacular. I had been looking for new sources of maple for my arch top guitars as north American maples seemed to be getting heavier and heavier. The Maple I got from Catalin was beautiful and had a great strength to weight ratio. Good specific gravity and was a joy to work. I will be buying from them again

Maple back and sides are beautiful, I am very happy with it.
It was easy to choose my favorit pieces of tops, backs and sides from your web pages.
The service was good, well packaged and quick delivery.

I like to use Catalin's tonewood.
Specially the maple tonewood is so nice
as well as its price.
When I visited his place, I've found stored tonewoods
that naturally seasoning.
The seasoning method is very important for the sound
of instrument.
I am satisfied with the business with Catalin

Thank you also this time for a fast delivery, the wood is looking very fine, and I am looking forward to work with it. The website is very easy to work with.
Fast service.
My first delivery arrived today. fast service to Italy. well packed , arrived safely. Even came with some packing pieces that may be good enough to use in a smaller instrument. looking forward to a creative winter in my workshop, thanks Carpathian tonewoods!
I travelled to Rasnov in Romania with my wife to hand pick some guitar tops and enjoy a few days in beautiful Transylvania.
Catalin was a great host who picked us up from a nearby town and showed us around his saw mill.
I chose some really great tops from an extensive collection of his hand selected luthier wood.
I even ended up buying one of the student cello packages he sells.
Everything was packaged up well and arrived in perfect order.
Catalin knows his stuff and I found his saw mill a most interesting place to visit.
Great service, good packaging.
Comment: The website is very helpful with pictures of the actual wood pieces. The wood came very promptly and well wrapped. Very good value. The postage was very expensive but that is not the fault of the supplier. Maybe a slower but cheaper option would be useful,
I was very pleased with the wood I received after only a week from order. The homepage is very easy to work with, and you are able to order from the pictures you see, and you won`t get disappointed.
I am looking forward to work with the wood on my cello projects, and I will return with new orders when I start a new project.
Best regards
Carl Otto Højer Sørensen

Clear website and accurate description of every item
I’ve bought Carpathian spruce from several several other vendors in Romania and this is the best quality I’ve found. The people who run the company are very helpful and helped me find the least expensive shipping method to the USA. Many Thanks!
