Looking for some high figure Claro Walnut for a jumbo Guitar. Do any of our sponsors have any? Its for a commission and my customer wants to see it first. I know LMI has it but I can't buy it without seeing it first! Thanks |

Larry at Gallery Hardwoods usually has some nice Claro. He's not a sponsor at the moment (but was), but still a good guy with good wood. |

Check out Volcano's site for the 'other woods,' or whatever they call it. AMAZING stuff with a low price. |

This is not a "crazy" set if that's what your after. Perfectly quartersawn,strong even curl,great color-kinda reminds me of a chocolate bar-back and sides cut from same board:
