I was going to guess a type of Rosewood. Beautiful! But, who’s going to build the guitar?All good guesses, but has anyone ever seen pau ferro like this before. I haven’t.
For a minute there I thought that was Carrot Top...can't find my readers.
Well I was sort of close with a non-rosewood rosewood.
I have pau ferro aka Bolivian rosewood but it's super straight grained and dark enough to pass as Indian rosewood. But it smells awful.
Great piece though!
Put some East Indian Rosewood acoustic backs through a sander/thicknesser a couple of days, that stuffs smells like germolene (anti-septic cream)!

I made a Tele neck out of the Pau ferro and when that stuff hits the routing/milling bit it releases all those oils and smells terrible.
The worst I've had was with "African teak." Even with a sealed mask, gloves, eye wear, etc we were still coughing for a few days and itchy.
Your next Corvette should match something so lovely.
A possession so personal deserves to stay with it's owners.Why would anyone be anti-septic? I have a whole tank of the stuff!
Remember, the White ones sound as good as the other ones. Say's the guy with the Frost Silver Sky.
Dude call 1-800-roto-rtrWhy would anyone be anti-septic? I have a whole tank of the stuff!
Tee here!Initially I thought this photo read:
“Boogie holding a Sant......”
Never mind, I’ll get my coat!
