Official Luthiers Forum!

I've just listed a bunch of wood on my site for Phase Two of the First Annual GOOB Sale '07 (TM).

This time I've added some Quilt Sapele:



More Goodies coming soon!

Need...some.....self......control....

*runs upstairs with computer and drops it out of window*

Sorry 'bout that Sam...even better stuff yet to come...

...including some previously unmentioned and very rare rosewood from Central America.

pulls credit cards out of wallet....goes to dresser and gets the scissors...starts shredding....

Two matching OM / OOO-12 sets of Cocobolo just added....


Wouldn't they make a great matching pair of gits? ! ? !






And there's always room for some Brazilian...

lol, Don if I weren't trying to set my money aside for some tools, I'd buy
the $500 set of Brazillian in an instant. The more expensive set is the
nicest I've personally seen.

Not wide enough for a Dreadnought.

Who said it was Lance?




Use your ability to highlite text to find the truth...


That set isn't really for sale, this was just a fun joke with Lance...

that is maybe the most beautiful set of BRW i have ever seen. at least top three.

Thanks Heath, it is beautiful. In case nobody realizes it, the set really isn't for sale, although Brock has been after me to sell it to him for ages.


My plan for that set is to make a OOO-12 with it. I have two other sets that came from the same board, one which will be an OM, and the other a OO. I'm calling these guitars my "Three Bears" project.


Oh for those folks who can't live without a set of Movingui, see the NE Tonewoods GOOB SALE - Phase 1 thread...

The boss asked my why I was sitting in front of the computer all last night.

My reply...."Im waiting for Phase III"

Phase III will be announced in the Phase II thread, to keep this from overwhelming the OLF with my in-thread sale. But I will have a Phase 3 on the NET website. In it will be the long-anticipated raindrop quilt cocobolo, and a bunch of other goodies.

I've added a few new items to the GOOB Sale Phase 2 page...

A couple more sets of Cocobolo, a few sets of Malaysian Blackwood, and a set of flitch-cut Ziricote.

Thanks for looking!

Dang.....I just added a Cocobolo set to my earlier order.

Just gotta make sure I get down to the front gate before the boss when the next Visa bill arrives.

Martin, you were a few hours too late...someone else grabbed them about 7 hours before you!
Sorry, but more on the way in the next several days.

Nothing new tonight. Looks like Saturday I'll have the Raindrop Quilt Cocobolo up, and perhaps some of the Honduran ROsewood sets.

Don - I'll be waiting. I have to say that the raindrop llooks like a defect to me, but I'm just waiting to see the Honduran!

Man that "JK" sure loves that Cocobolo.

Martin - I left all the Sapele and stuff for you, though.
