      This video proves nothing. First of all the quality of the wood is far more important then what wood it is. If the way how a guitar resonates wouldn't matter every guitar with the same pickups would also sound the same which is simply not true. It already starts with the dry volume. Some guitars (even with the same body shapes) are much louder and have a lot more sustain then others.

    I have no idea what woods my bass is made from. Once you run it through a couple fx pedals, it really doesn't matter.
