We have accumulated over the years an impressive inventory of tone woods for building guitars. All have been well-seasoned and stored in my shop for at least 3 years and some 25+ years. Choose any back and side and top combination, model style and finish and we’ll get you a quote. We will also work with you on binding and purfling requests. Please note that many of the Brazilian Rosewood is pre-CITES, but doesn’t have paperwork, so we can ship the finished instrument only to US addresses and we advise not taking the finished instrument out of the country. I currently have 2 Brazilian Rosewood sets with paperwork. added 9-2024
