Roasted maple = Rosewood --> More air and high harmonics freq. specialy after 3k and 4k Hz. Maple is more hot in the mids and a little more bassy, Thats why we dont see mahoganys Gibson Lp with all maple necks and thats why we see ash bodies with maple necks and fingerboards. People confuse mids and the high mids with the trebles bite and high freq. Mids are about 250,500 - 2k, meanwhile the edge and high frequencies are in 3,4K to 10, where is the Air. The more hardness has a material, the more high freq. are reflected, less dampened by the material, which make it more rich and wide, open. A lot people prefer maple boards for single coils, and rosewwod for humbuckers, specially if they are direct mounted.
Pretty bad comparison honestly. Not only is the volume quieter during the first roasted maple neck samples, on the first distorted clips the guitar is on different pick ups settings.
Do you really think that one shift to the bridge p/up position during distorted clip spoiled you the whole picture to compare tonal characteristics of the necks? And because of those minor elements as volume and pickup switch, you name the comparison Pretty bad? Come on.....
like the sound of the unroasted neck better, but it's not something EQ can't fix and no guarantee that it isn't the wood itself differing between the two necks vs. the roasting vs. not roasting.
I was looking for a video like this! Well done, my friend. While the traditional natural maple is warmer, I love the added presence and articulation of the roasted maple. Especially when you kick in the dirt...the roasted maple had a sparky quality that's pretty happening.
The roasted one has much more definition, the not roasted maybe could sound warmer here, but that is an EQ issue. After the roast procces the wood is not normal wood anymore, so, like any different wood, needs different EQ.
Ariel Lopez It doesn’t seem to have any noticeable impact on sound, but for me who lives in a climate where humidity changes greatly between summer and winter the promised increased stability does appeal.
A lot of guitarists who hear a tone with boosted mids will say its brighter. To me they are different things, and the roasted neck has more top end brightness.
but... but.... wood doesn't matter!!! wahhhhhhh! I'm going to tell my daddy on YOU! Well, woods matter. everything matters. I liked both. That more focused sound of the roasted can work. The warmer tone can also work. Just goes to prove that whatever the strings vibrate UPON, can audibly affect the tone. thx.
I liked the non roasted but hety - it;s ok if you or anyone likes the roasted more it's a prsonal taste thing however exactly everything eaffects the tone on the instrument wood included ha ha ha
@Graham Rathbone yea man. a real test would be taking the same neck and roast it and compare before and after. and the rule of thumb should be, imho, if that's as far as you have to go, it doesn't matter. i think making sure bridge and nut let the strings vibrate without dampening is the most important. because then you can probably get more frequencies to start with. anything else is pickups or tone knob and ofc amp. ofc, imho, the neck and the wood defo matter when it comes to different species and stuff. but only one of many factors.
Roasted= more nasal and low mids. Question of taste and if you need more stability due to climate issues... Personnally, I like Mahogany+Rosewood. To each his own ;-)
Look closely at the figure on the guitar. It is the same body and electronics. There is no guarantee even that the next roasted maple neck might not be brighter than the unroasted neck, though - two different pieces of wood may have bigger differences themselves than anything that roasting does (and roasting does actually change the wood if done at a high enough temperature - it's been used in building materials - "high temperature drying" for decades to make up for the decline in lumber quality.
There is really a hearable difference between the two. In my opinion the roasted neck has some tones that are coming out really much nicer and warmer than the standard neck but it's not across the board. The neck is just part of the overall sound. Body, pickups and the amp also matters.
Sorry, but I can't trust this comparison. The video was shot using 2 cameras which can definitely alter the sound a bit. If the guitars are both exactly the same except for the baked and none baked wood and running through the same amp then at least shoot the video with one camera.
Roasted better. More serious and grown up tone. More authentic.There's more "air" around the sound, and it's more musical and compelling in the way it carries the chord progressions.
anyone else hear some strawberry with a like an earthy almost mossy touch in there? for real though... sounds different but not more frequencies on one or something. nothing you can't reproduce with the tone knob...so...who cares...
Gotta love how people swear the wood makes a difference... It absolutely does on acoustic guitars but it absolutely doesn't on electric guitars. The small differences you're all hearing are probably the pickups, 2 guitars, pickups gonna be a little different. Not to mention you're judging the sounds coming out of an AMP, picked up by the MIC of a CAMERA, and then coming out of your SPEAKERS. The regular maple could sound warmer to you in this one, grab 2 other electric guitars and it could be the other way around.
MarryJewana pickups for the most part are machine wound, this guy is even using the same tuners. Cheers ... go tell Brian May that neck wood used does not matter.
@@rollipollirock machine wound and the exact same amount of winds doesnt mean there are no differences in the pickups. You also know that tuners don't matter either right?
Are you aware your points are totally moot. He's using the same guitar, same tuners, same amp, same mic, same recording software under the same conditions and it's all coming out of YOUR speakers comparatively so the only variables here are the necks and your ears. To my ears the roasted maple out of the two necks has a darker tone but that's not to say another roasted maple neck couldn't sound brighter.
@@markturton7805 "To my ears the roasted maple out of the two necks has a darker tone but that's not to say another roasted maple neck couldn't sound brighter." The difference is so small to begin with that it could be literally anything or a combination of things. You could also say that the pickups on one sound brighter than the other, that the pickups might be slightly closer to the strings on one than the other, that the neck is screwed to the body a little tighter on one than the other, which makes for better contact to the body. Needlesly to say that he's human and can't play exactly the same twice. You literally go to yourself "if I have to hear any difference it would be that ....blablabla *start fooling yourself*
@@Daantjer the difference is small to some people and large to other people. People have different ears. Those who can hear know what they are hearing.
It's a shit, all of it. Acrylic guitars sound very WOOODY. Steve Vai prove it. And "That don't prove anything", because we need to play on a guitar. MORE. Not a comparising wood, maple tops, guitar color or something. This proves all.

1:20 he's using the Bridge pickup on the regular maple, Neck pickup on Roasted maple
Yeah I noticed that too...
The roasted sounds somewhat more sharper, while the normal maple has a more rounder "brown" tone.

Дмитрий спасибо)
а вам какой вариант по душе?
I notice you keep switching pickups throughout the video, so no wonder things sound so different
На перегрузе - просто звук двух разных звукоснимателей. Что сравниваем-то?)
Overdriven it makes a bigger difference. That's interesting. Would love to hear an in-the-mix comparison.
Because he used different pickups with the overdriven parts...
Nice work, great comparison.
Cerwin-Vega in the background. I had a pair those for many years. Ran them until the surrounds rotted. Great speakers.
The comparison is not 100% fair. Reverb/delay pedals matter. Also, the mic position matters.
what wood is the body made of? mahogany with maple on top?
Alder with maple top
Great Comparison!
Roasted all the way! 🎧🏆
Funny didn't even see the diezel sitting there, but I heard it right away and knew it was a diezel. Great freaking amps
I liked the roasted maple better, lookes great too on that body

I love the roasted maple and there is a tone difference, but the difference is more noticable in clean or crunch mode.

No he's not Julian Assange XD But I had the same thought haha
@@IronLordFitness *-)))))))))))))) I'll tell you true - he is!
I thought I would like roasted better but no, regular maple for me.
same but i love the look of roasted maple :D
Ariel Lopez It doesn’t seem to have any noticeable impact on sound, but for me who lives in a climate where humidity changes greatly between summer and winter the promised increased stability does appeal.
The standard pale maple has warmer tone. I like it better in this demo, as your guitar is bright enough already. Thanks very much for showing this.
only because the pickups are different , wood type has nothing to do with it.
gscgold The neck is aftermarket. Same exact electronics.
actually the roasted maple sounds way more smooth and less bright than the normal maple.
A lot of guitarists who hear a tone with boosted mids will say its brighter. To me they are different things, and the roasted neck has more top end brightness.
I hope you used new strings on each demo...

Hello, Roasted is more stable, yes?
So wood does not matter, show this the anti tone wood people. I like the regular maple better.
Standard Maple sound BIGGER
Doesn't make sense when you're compairing them using different pickups
