I've got tops from the Craig and Alicia Carter redwood harvests back in the 1990's.
The include the TA (Tonally Awesome), TB (Tono Basso) and the FA (Fine Arts) trees. All are from blown-down redwoods, anywhere from 15-40 years down as of the 1990's. A lot of folks here have bought/used them with great results.
PM me if you are interested.

If you ever happen to catch Don W in person to buy a set and Tom D or me happen to be around, we will just give you a set ... we love to see Don turn red.

I have seen Don’s redwood.
I think it’s some special stuff.
I have a lovely top from him.
Now I just need to make a lovely guitar out of it.
