Hello all, I'm just wondering if anybody has built with the rosewood some of us bought from Gopel through Bruce on our import order? I'm getting ready to start a new batch of guitars and will be using this wood for the first time. I'd love to see any pictures if anybody has built with it yet. Cheers! John |

it is good to go. RH with the meter was 6 to 8 percent. He's online these days in the Keys so maybe he'll refresh my memory. John if you've had it stickered in a 45% setting or less, I see no problem with getting after a set. I have two lined up for clients now, eta late Feb, so you are ahead of me. I was thrilled. It's been three goin' on four months and the moisture content was right when we got it. You didn't see the pallet, but it had a plastic liner below wrapped upward, and a plastic liner above wrapped downward, then strapped down so it was fairly imperviosly sealed all the way. |

I've got two bodies bend and one to go tomarrow all with it. RH won't be a problem at all. It's pretty nice stuff. |

I wanna see some pictures. I'm still kickin myself for not getting in on that with you guys. Bad timing and all. Maybe Bruce will trade me a set or two for some birch  BTW bruce I haven't forgot about those pictures I just haven't spent more than an hour in the shop since you asked about them.. Oo I'll take a photo of my guitar right now.. just all the birch is up in the storage room.
