5A Spalted Maple Burl Bookmatched Set Guitar Top, Luthier Guitar Building HUGE

  

5A Spalted Maple Burl Book-matched set Instrument Top! Astounding figure on this set - amazingly detailed with billowing burl patterns, colourful spalting and flame effects. The internal bark voids have been filled with Maple bark and dark brown resin so these are ready to glue together and start building with! The resin whilst dry will appear grey but once lacquered or oiled it will be a very dark brown to match the correct colour (see difference between wet and dry pictures).

Light coloured spalted areas may require extra care as they can be softer than surrounding areas. Please pay special attention to the sizes on the measuring board in the pictures, and to the guitar sized template outline drawn on to the set.

This set is 6.4mm thick (drop-top thickness). This Maple had been very carefully air dried for 3 years and then slow-kilned to ensure the ultimate in stability.

Dry and ready to use right away. Items are pictured dry and wetted with Naphtha to give an indication of true colour and detail once finished. Naphtha isn't absorbed by the wood, and evaporates very rapidly after use. This item is in the category "Musical Instruments & DJ Equipment\Guitars & Basses\Guitar Building & Luthier Supplies".
