Well here is the first stack I rounded up pictures of. Hopefully I will get some more time to place a few more items in the next day or two. Sorry for my poor pictures. If you need more info or better pictures please feel free to ask.

Here is a few bits of wood binding all 1/4" tall width varies. 15 pieces flamed maple(nice).10" wide, 8 pieces Flamed maple(nice) .07" wide, Purpleheart .06" wide, Walnut(not figured) .08" wide. $2 each for any.


Back and side sets. Sides are 5"x 32"+, backs are 8"x 21+ (or larger). Thickness as noted(all are surface sanded).

Curly Claro Walnut(back and sides-.16")$120


Two Black Limba Sets(backs .105" Sides .12")$55 each set



Quilted Maple(sides 5.5" wide x.10", backs 9" wide x.115")$100



Quilted Sapele(full of figure-very nice)(sides 5.5" wide x.110", back 8.5" wide x.13") $160


Striped Sapele (back and sides .13")$35


Western Red Cedar Soundboard 8-7/8"x22"+(very nice). $30


Redwood Soundboards 7-7/8" x 22"+(pics reflect sequetial cut sets from billet, some billets have more color). I am not really grading the sets out- any set $25 ea.




Curly Redwood Soundboards 7-7/8" x 23"+(pic reflect a sequential cut billet). All have strong figure and very similar to the set that is open. I would be happy to take additional pictures of any sets you would like to see better.(The second pic has been wiped with Naptha to show the figure better in the picture). I am not grading the sets individually. $50 set any


More to come, as soon as I find time.

Rich,

I'll take Limba set #1, the striped sapele set, the WRC soundboard, 1 redwood soundboard (your choice) and up to 10 pieces of purpleheart binding (you didn't specify how many you had).


Thanks

Rich, let me have the other black limba set before Bob gets everything

                             Red

Rich, I'll take all the maple binding, walnut binding (how many there?) one curly redwood set and the quilt maple set.

Bob- The Striped Sapele and first Black Limba set are yours, one WRC soundboard, one Redwood soundboard, I think there are 5 Purple Heart binding(I will confirm, I think I still have a good size bundle of it in my bin though. I will probably add another stack of binding as soon as I get time to go through my bins).

Red- The Second Black Limba Set is yours. I will check on the other items you asked about in your PM.

Joe- There is a total of 23 Maple Bindings in the picture, and I believe a dozen Walnut they are yours. The Quilted Maple set, and one Curly Redwood soundboard.

Thanks for your interest guys. I am off to meetings for most of the day. I will see if I can't add some more bits tonight.

Peace,Rich

Thanks Rich! let me know total with shipping so I can pay. You can e-mail me @ getgomusic@aol.com

I'd Like one Redwood sound board, Please

Robert

It has been a busy day for this fella, but I made time to get a few more pics before I go to bed.

This is a nice set of Curly Sapele. I did not write down the dimensions, but it is a larger set(I will confirm all the dimensions for back and side sets tomorrow). Set is $90


and a closer pic(same set)


These are figured(light quilt) Honduran Mahogany sets(very large set back is better than 9").each set is $65





This is a Figured Myrtle set with nice color(figure is hard to see it is a fine curly figure).Set is a larger size(again I will confirm tomorrow). Set is $75


These are some rosette and headstock veneers.

Maple Burls. One on left is good size for rosette Bookmatch $6. the one on right headstock size Bookmatch $4.


These are Maple Burls(headstock size). The figure is really cool, it has a crossing curl that looks almost gem like. Each bookmatch $5


These are Spalted Maple(nice color). I figure these are sized best for headstocks, but could be used for segmented rosettes. Each bookmatch $5, the individual piece $2.50



Amboyna Burl. First pic has headstock sized veneers with sapwood. each piece $13


Amboyna Burl rosette blanks. each piece $13


Sorry for not having all my information available. I will round up all the info tomorrow. Its late and I better get to bed.
Peace,Rich

Rich I will take the Mahogany sets and the Sapele
Cheers

Kim

Oh and Rich, if you have any more of that Mahogany I would realy like a third set, it's very nice Oh and Rich o'l buddy o'l pal, any more of those flamed maple bindings?? I am real sorry to have missed out on those could do with about 20 of em.

Cheers mate

Kim

Robert- A Redwood set is yours. I need to find out what your preference would be in terms of color.

Kim- Sapele(I am assuming the curly set from my second posting not the quilted from the first post), The two Mahogany sets(and yes I have a another set for you). I have plenty of Flamed Maple bindings(I just have not posted a second round of bindings yet) so you have 20 of them at the same price as the ones above.

Peace, Rich

So here is an update of what is still available.

From first post-
Redwood Soundboards
Curly Redwood Soundboards
Curly Claro Walnut B/S Set
Quilted Sapele B/S Set
The picture of the set is poor, This is a picture of a set(sequentially cut from same billets as the set that I am offering) on one of my projects.


from the second post-
Figured Myrtle B/S set
All the Maple veneers
All the Amboyna Veneers

I will add more bits and pieces as soon as I get time.

Peace,Rich

I'd like to offer $80 for the claro set. That'll bring my total to an even 300. (I like even numbers)

Sounds fine Joe. The Curly Claro set is yours.

Peace,Rich

Rich,

That's a good question! What are my color choices?

Robert

Robert,
   I tooks pictures of three billets. Each has a little different degree of color and appearance(if you look at the three pictures you will notice the middle billet was quite a bit more colorful than the first or third). Just pick which on of the three pictures looks like it has the sets that looks most appealing to you.

Peace,Rich

Thanks Rich,

I like the third one.

Also, I'd like 2 maple burls, and 1 spalted maple.

Image #1. left for $6.00
Image #2. Bottom Middle one
Image #3. top left book match set.

Robert,

   They are yours(that group of maple in pic two is a real favorite of mine, figure is really unique).

Peace,Rich

   

Rich, do you have any more flamed maple bindings? If so, do you have any closeup pics of them. I would be interested in about 25 or so.

[QUOTE=fryovanni]Sounds fine Joe. The Curly Claro set is yours.

Thanks Rich!

Hows $50 for the Myrtle sound?

af_one,
     I may lower the price later in the swap, but $75 seemed to be a pretty fair price for the set. I may try to get a better picture of the figure(it does have curl it is just fine and hard to see in the picture). Thank you for the offer though.

Peace,Rich

Rich,

I may be very interested in the myrtle, but I'd really like to see a better pic
when you get the time.

Also, any update on additional purple heart bindings?

Thanks,
Chris

Dave,
   I will post up a bunch of Flamed Maple bindings(with a close up of the stack) as soon as I can(I am baby sitting at the moment). I will set 25 aside for you, and if they look good to you they are yours. I will keep the same price for all of them($2).

P.S. I am not sure if you are interested in color as much as figure. Most of mine are bright white, but I have a bundle that are more of a creamy tan. The figure on those is super strong and full(I had sliced them up for a better color match with certain woods). I will post a side by side(bright white and these) for you to compair.

Peace

Oh I wish I could just edit(I feel like I am making too many posts).

I will post up some more bindings as soon as I can. I will probably be adding a little here and there through the whole duration of the swap. I will also try to take a better pic of the Myrtle.

Peace,Rich
