Tom,

Thank you very much for new and very interesting information.

But how can we understand the coming place of wood with looking through the
soundboard ?

I think I understood you cleanly. Wood green needles have 4 surfaces and
one edge have portrusions like teeth and we have to count that and compare
with table.

I think at Stradivarius research , they compare the summer and winter
soundboard wood lines with tables and learn the growing time.

Can we take an flamenco guitar from europe - when we dont know the origin-
and photograph the soundboard , enlarge the photo , measure the thickness
of winter summer wood and than compare with table and learn the origin of
wood and the growing time ?

Is it possible and widely used method ?

I learned there are DNA , Isotope methods but out of reach.

Thank you,

Umut
