African Blackwood

             Blackwood is a jewel wood both aesthetically and acoustically. Fantastic separation of voices and punching basses contrasting with clear trebles make this Blackwood babe is a dream come true for any guitar player. Blackwood is the toughest wood to work and it surpasses Brazilian rosewood in reliability, stability ad consistency. It is mostly found in Tanzania and you have seen it in wind instruments like the clarinet and the oboe. Tools are often destroyed by the wood and it takes twice as much time and work to be shaped and carved than any other species. I sell it at my cost to allow as many of my customers to afford a concert instrument made with this terrific tropical.
