I got my bundle of tops yesterday. Unbelievable! Each set has a flaw, but most of the ones I got, I can work around. Some will reverse match just fine, since the grain distribution is so even. Hard to believe how good most of it looks. There are a few that can't be salvaged, but not the case for most of mine. Might be harder if my tops were bigger, though. |

I received mine the other day also and emailed Shane letting him know how happy I was with the deal. Lots-o-tops for soundhole and fingerboard patches and should be able to sneak a few small tops out of it too. Tim |

Just got mine today. Ran one through the planer and then sander. What a beauty. Except for a couple, definitely workable and to me very usable as tops. I don't mind a little blemish here are there. Thanks, Shane. |

Did you guys actually receive word about the bundle with tracking number? Maybe I'm not in this batch but I've not received any notification of any kind. Thanks, Charlton |

Mine arrived on Friday. Thickness sanded the saw marks on the first three sets and looks to me like the flaws are easily worked around. Hard to beat for $10 a set. |

Another happy customer here! A few of mine seem to have their flaws outside the pattern or in the soundhole area! A few more will make very nice 4 pc tops. Only 3 or 4 practice sets. |
