Hi Guys/Gals..I just picked up some nice koa blocks recently from a luthier who was going out of business. See 'em below. Some with the great fiddleback grain, some moderate grain and a few plain but still beautiful. Koa has a natural chatoyancy factor not found in all woods.
I try to keep my wood affordable but it is expensive to buy so I do hafta make a buck or two. You know how it is. : )
