so much buckeye! its great i love it. and really, the PH and paduak with look really stunning. same with PH and bloodwood.
I designed the basses using Google Sketchup. I then sent the design to a graphics artist so he could make the realistic renderings. These were done by Beavs Graphics, he does nice work.
To me it really doesn't have much of a smell, but then again I've been working cocobolo, spanish cedar and padauk all weekend so my nose is not working too well at the moment.
