Where abouts do you go to get this exotic stuff, DB? I've never even heard of it, never mind buy it.Quote:

Thanx Lawry.
Iroko and Makore both come from Africa
The Iroko is a hardwood and the Makore is a type of Mahogany
Lawry, over East there is one place in Brisvegas I know of. Lazarides stock some very yummy exotic timbers.
Hey DB. I had a look at the Lazarides Timbers web page and those guys have so much stuff! And their gallery has links to some beautiful artwork-like items. But what I really liked is that you can filter their timbers by application, including musical instruments. That's cool!
Oh my god. That neck heel carve is amazing. I so love your build threads, DB.
Fingerboard on and sanded to 240...

Yeah!
That is looking amazing. Looks like one heck of a comfortable neck heel.
Have decided to stop looking. Am getting too jealous.
