Mocking up a Mesquite root burl slab guitar. 3 stringer fretless. The wood is like working with Ironwood..very hard! It will get carvings on it to try and lower it`s heavy weight.

Randy, I found an interesting piece of mesquite for you.
I've given the Post Office all pertinent information, and it will be sending over a crane and several agents to estimate the shipping cost to you.
