and what other kinds are there? Quilted ash, and flamed maple are particular types of these woods, giving a particular visual effect.
'Select' just means 'chosen for quality' There are many different woods used in guitar making, chosen either for their workability/durability,for their accoustic qualities, or for the way they look. I like quilted ash- I'm shortly planning to buy a Yamaha guitar in this wood, because I think it's gorgeous.

The type of wood determines the tonal quality of the guitar - It's to do with the density of the wood and the way that type of wood resonates - Guitars often have one type of wood on the face and another on the back - The bridge and the neck might be made of other types as well - Really expensive guitars sometimes use Mahogany as well...........
