Thanks in advance,

Peter,

There was a thread about this 2-3 months ago.

Dave Maize at maizeguitars.com sells them. Several folks raved about the
ones LMI was selling from Hank Mauel.

Good Luck,

Eric

Peter,
I just recently bought a mastergrade Redwood top from LMI - it is an excellent top.

Hank Mauel is the source of most of the wood sold by others. Shoot him an email.

I'm just finishing a guitar with a Hank Mauel redwood top now, it certainly is premium wood.

Darren Hippner has had them on ebay lately too - I think there may be one there now.
