    Australian Tone Woods

    For those who have the patience to do scratch builds in exotic timbers (ok technically they aren't exotic but you get what I mean...)

    http://www.australianguitartonewood.com/

    I haven't dealt with them but saw others talking about them on a wood work forum.

    Cheers.

    Edited to add a link to where I found the info - the owner has an interesting story to tell:
    HERE

    (I hope the cross post is OK)
