I'm considering purchasing some wood from Australian Tonewoods...any recent customers have feedback positive or negative you'd be willing to share on the board or privately if more appropriate?

Thanks,

If I had any money it would already be in his pocket, of course I like to get some nice brazilian rosewood too, and some flame koa,......mmmmmm that snakewood.
I think youll find that any of the sponsors here are pretty awesome to deal with.
Cheers
Charlie

I've dealt with Tim and cant speak highly enough of the guy. Excellent
prompt service, he keeps you updated on progress of the order, all goods
well packed and he often puts in an extra or two.

Cheers Martin

Tim's 1'st rate. He recently sent me some real spectacular Blackwood, & he even threw in some extras. It arrived way sooner than I thought it would...considering it came all the way from Australia.

Thanks for all the positive feedback. Just a footnote to say that if there is any issues regarding quality I will always offer a replacement at no extra cost.

I am in the process of preparing a pallet of Tasmanian Blackwood to be shipped back to my workshop. There is a huge range of colur and figure amongst the billets. Hopefully there will be enough for all tastes. I will make a post of the material when I get back.


regards

Tim
