  • KV3 body wood?

    were they made of alder or poplar?
    is poplar inferior or cheaper to alder?

    Poplar
    They're fairly similar

      I find poplar to be more predictable as far as pickup choices go...

        They've always sounded pretty similar to me. Then again, there's been guys here that hated poplar. I'll take poplar over (b)asswood any day!

          agreed, poplar is way better than basswood imo

            Basswood isn't too bad.
            The model series were made of Basswood and they sound cool.

            Basswod seems to be more neutral than alder and ash.
            So the pups make a bigger difference.
