Just posted an absolutely stunning piece of Tasmanian Flame/Burl Myrtle at Luthiersauctions. The size of section and the colour/figure is spectacular. I hope it goes to a good home. It would be nice to keep it in one piece or split into a book matched piece. This material will machine and finish well. It has been dried for several years now so it stable and quite sound. regards Tim Australian Tonewoods |

I had a look for the Myrtle myself and found that it didn't appear the auctionh home page. It is listed in the HEAPLATES section. regards Tim Australian Tonewoods |

What a great piece of wood. I am sure it will look great on someone's guitar! I just "figger'd" out that W.A. is Western Australia, Not WA for Washington (state) |

Thank you, Tim. MI is Michigan Mee Shee Gun in my Yankee (New Englander) Dialect. And MS is for "Olde Miss" for Mississippi! I am not sure if they think of Mississippi as a spinster (old maid) or what... btw, I love Aussie Rulz Futbal! |

I'm currently building with a set of Tim's Tasmanian Blackwood and it's really nice, just thought I'd give a plug for Tim in case people were curious about it. Great tap, well quartered, bent well, etc,ect. I'm sure to build more with it. |
