Pacific Rim Tonewoods is not merely a tonewood supplier—it is an institution steeped in passion, purpose, and environmental integrity. Located in the heart of the Pacific Northwest, where the rich forests of Washington and British Columbia give birth to some of the most resonant and visually stunning wood species in North America, Pacific Rim Tonewoods has become synonymous with elite craftsmanship, sustainability, and acoustic purity.
Specializing in guitar soundboards—the heartbeat of any stringed instrument—this company goes far beyond the role of supplier. It acts as a guardian of heritage, a steward of forests, and partner to elite luthiers across the world. Every piece of wood is more than a product—it’s a promise of sonic excellence. And in that promise, Pacific Rim Tonewoods has carved out a space as a revered and forward-thinking leader in the guitar-building community.
At the core of Pacific Rim Tonewoods’ expertise is its unwavering focus on acoustic guitar soundboards, which are regarded as the most crucial element in shaping an instrument’s voice. Unlike other suppliers who treat tonewood as a commodity, Pacific Rim treats each cut, each grain, and each resonance with reverence. Whether you’re building a dreadnought, a parlor guitar, or a hybrid cutaway, the soundboard sets the tonal signature of the instrument.
