what are some of you favorite wood combinations for guitar and why?
Anything works for specific reasons, can't say I have a very favourite one but mahogany/korina body with maple/walnut/bubinga/koa top, maple/mahogany/rosewood set-in or bolt-on neck, and ebony/pau ferro/cocobolo/snakewood fretboard are all very good choices to be used together.
Generally speaking, I'd want the body to be lightweight, warm and resonant, "rich" sounding. The neck stiffer, "harder" sounding, more focused and of course stable. A top to add even more complex frequencies to the body and a very hard fretboard to give attack, percussiveness and firm fundamental.
