You can stop over to my website. I have rope and coral snake purfs that are pretty cool. Herring bone is on order and will be here next month.

Definitely give Shane's website a look. Another source online for woodworking inlay is Constantines.

For a really big selection have a look at the German company Karin Rost, I get a fair bit from them and I know that Russell does as well (he recommended them to me). They carry just about anything you'll ever need!

Shane can get you any roses and purfs!
Karin Rost has a minimum order -so make sure you want what they have to offer!!
Yes they make or take custom orders but remember the monitary exchange !

Shane may also have to take a minimum order but at least
you have someone you all know to work with!

Be very very careful with these. I have had some severe bleeding with their colored purflings.

Here is a source in Canada that has some purfling types that are different than most places http://www.guitarwood.ca.

A few of the ones that are not typical are 5B, 20, 22, and 44.

I have also used the Karin Rost but seal the purfling ledge with shellac before gluing to prevent bleeding.
