    I did a quick search and nothing came up, just curious...
    On my next build...I plan on using Guatemalan Rosewood for the finger board!...(fretted)
    Do you have any advise, experience, tone quality etc.>>>

    Best regards

    Are you referring to Dalbergia tucurensis? There are dozens of dalbergia species, likely all of them have been used in guitars before...
