Oscar what species is the 4th one? Looks like auilted spalted something.... Amazing!

Hey Matt, on the Redwood, try making up a small batch of thinned epoxy and do a couple coats of this before you finish if using a lacquer or poly finish. Helps to resist dents a lot more successfully than just finishing over the redwood.

I've used CPES on redwood and it does help once you are ready to finish. The hard part for me is the dents that occur before you even get the guitar to finish! A cleaner, less cluttered shop would probably help....

LOL. Yeah exactly, it's a pain at best. I can empathise with the cluttered shop, mine need some Organization and cleanup too...LOL

Hi Fabian. Yes, it is a really nice piece of quilted maple. You can see some bubbles going out!

Marblewood, density 0,95

And for neck/figerboard Boco, density 1,25 for this piece, sorry for the bad quality of the photo, it's a lot more beautiful in reality

Each 6cm thickness enough to do all the bass thickness

(I registered just for this thread, it's awesome, and i can't resist to share those two pieces)
