I've got a pretty long list of acquisitions I've made over the years. Some were bought with a project in mind while others were bought because I just
had to have them. Processed pieces are just that - ready for whatever you've got in mind. There's lots of stuff here so pics in the post aren't practical. If you ABSOLUTELY need a pic - some of the pieces might - I'll gladly take one for you but provide a good email addy for me to send it to. The wood is all aged and quite dry - been kept inside all of it's processed life. Some of it dates back 10 years. It's been 3 years since I stopped building so the youngest is at least that old. Everything is sized for bass dimensions - even some extended range widths. Paypal preferred as usual. I'm inclined to offer $10 each flat shipping for the body wood and $5 for the fretboard stock and I'll discount those for multiple purchases. There's about $1200 dollars of material here but I'll sell the whole lot to the first $600 that shows up. Then I'll ship for free! No other discounts apply. If you don't like any of the pieces, ship them back (your expense) and I'll refund your whole purchase w/shipping. Gotta go watch the 'Noles now...
