has your solicitor served the petition yet? would seem you now have more than adequate grounds; i.e. extreme mental cruelty, permanent and irreversible philistine syndrom, etc., etc..

So, I just finished bending a beautiful set of Madagascar Rosewood tonight. I was very proud of the way it went, NO springback at all. I brought the cutaway side in to show my wife and she sort of Humpfed it off. I said, "isn't it cool". "No" she replied , "it looks like cheap paneling". WHAT????? That hurt. |

Madagascar Rosewood has pretty much become my second favorite back/side wood. I get nearly zero springback with it as well, and it is dead gorgeous... just sent one off last week and its starting to dominate future orders. Does your wife happen to need to get rid of any cheap paneling?? |

Funny, don't be too upset. Unless someone else paid for it I'd never buy it for the same reason. Looks like paneling to me too. |

To each his own I guess... but I love it. I think it is one of the best looking woods going, and it pings like glass..... One thought though... I am finishing my a new one with madrose everyting -- b/s, fingerboard, bridge, headplate, etc. This is some REALLY open pored wood. You can really feel them on the fingerboard. It looks nice, but I am not sure if I like that feel or not. |

I've had the same feeling. We have a worthless bookshelf with Brazilian rosewood copy plastic laminate coating the worst particleboard ever. It just sort of ruins the whole RW experience. One time in an office I saw a file cabinet made to look like waterfall bubinga. It looked really out of place. The strangest cheap panelling was the stuff I took out of the family room last year. It looked like rotting pine. I'll never understand that. Someone went to a lot of effort to copy something that your insurance company would pay to have ripped out if it was real. Don't thing guitar buyers are going to feel the same way about any of these woods anytime soon though. |
