Hey Guys, here is a pic of a whole heap of "tonewood" I have just cut to length ready to be taken through the thicknesser. I will be cutting to size 3 and 4 string necks and fretboards. The timber is mainly New Guinea Rosewood, there is some mahogony and some maple. I will be using these necks in my own builds and they will also be available in the kits I will have for sale shortly (if you are interested in a kit contact me as it will be first in first served and the first people to contact me will be able to choose from a couple of different boxes) I may also have some rosewood necks and fretboards to sell seperately ( depending on interest) 
Just google "New Guinea rosewood guitar" you will find heaps of positive reviews for using new guinea rosewood for guitar making.
Cheers, Matt.
