Check out the classifieds for some info on some Black & White Ebony that I recently milled. Very high quality sets and I should be listing them within a few months. These will be priced fairly but they will still be quite expensive. This stuff costs a fortune and getting useable pieces is a nightmare. Anyway, I wanted to give folks a few months lead time to start saving if you are interested. I haven't seen any good quality sets on the market for many years and so, it is a rare opportunity to acquire a really nice grade set. Here's a representative picture of the type of quality:

Have you checked your sets against the OLF SJ?

I'm not familiar with the OLF SJ shape. These will accommodate OM's but nothing much bigger. My OM has a lower bout width of 15.2" and it fits fine but there is not a lot of extra width left. I may get a few sets that are a bit wider -- we'll see.
