This is what I got.MUN Ebony.Thanks to you, ZOOTMAN Bob,for having a great supply of beautiful tonewoods.This set has a pretty decent tap tone as well.Has anyone had experience bending Mun?I`m thinking super soft .

Nope 300F sprtiz lightly and used damp kraft paper. SSII would not harm anything and could give some piece of mind but I had not discovered SSII the first few times I bent Mun.

It almost looks like praying hands (upside down)--just the way I put my hands every night asking the great Lord to drop off some wood like that at my house on Christmas Eve.

The Praying Hands Guitar.I like that.Matthew I just bought it myself for Xmas.It`s also part of my sons Xmas.He really liked it when he saw it,and he has been building with me,which is a true blessing for me to share the guitar building experience with him.So Matthew I hope you and all the forum members get your blessings this season.
