Description
This is a Figured GONCALO ALVES ( astronium fracinifolium ) back and side set for building an acoustic guitar. Sometimes called tigerwood, this wood has tonal qualities that are between rosewood and Koa. Finishes very nicely, this is a closed pored wood. Silky smooth texture. Bends well and holds its shape. I really enjoy building with this wood and have had outstanding results. The measurements are as follows: back boards (each half)- 8.25" x 21.5" x .130+"thick. The sides(each half) 5" x 32.5" x .130+". All of my guitar sets are properly dried and seasoned and ready for sanding. Bid with Confidence! Sanding service is $20 per set. If you want your set sanded to your specs, let me know before checkout and I will add it to the invoice. SHIPPING COST ARE CALCULATED BASED ON LOCATION. I will combine shipping cost on auctions ending on the same day to save you money. CHECK OUT MY OTHER EXOTIC TONEWOODS !
