Pretty pricy but very nice figure.

If you dont know this already it is very challenging to work with very soft and requires lots of filling stabalizing. It will test your patience to the limit.

Here is a link to 2 guitars I am working on from a buckeye slab from newton Cost me $230 for a piece big enough to get 2 tops out of.

Where is Newton Woods located, i.e., where do they ship from?

Found it . . . Fresno, CA

I've been looking for a place like this for a long time!

Wow that thing looks spectacular finished up.

Who makes the Tail piece bridge that you used?

Buckeye is such a pain but finished products like this make it worth it.

I think that one is a Jerzy Drozd right?

Beautiful one, nice!

[Sterling_Bass]

That's definitely a Jerzy Drozd. They are gorgeous instruments.
