Peter, Wow! What a beauty! The new owner is going to be estatic I'm sure of it. Isn't the new owner a fellow AGF'er? Is that bloodwood binding? I don't think I've ever seen binding so vivid red before. |

Thanks guys! 
Hesh, Sinker redwood comes from logs that were sunken in the river for over 100 years. Its now a banned wood as the removal of the logs would tamper with the newly developed eco-system within and around the logs. The wood is highly impregnated with minerals and as you can see the wood has now some very nice hues... |
