Hello.... I'm looking for some Maple which I can't seem to find... any ideas? Any of the OLF Sponsors?? 1. I need a piece 3" X 15" X 20". It would be fine if this was 2 pieces out of the same board 3" X 8" X 20"... it is fine if there are some defects in this piece(s). This would preferably be a flat sawn piece, but anything really is fine. 2. I need another piece of maple1.5" X 8" X 20". I would like this to be master grade flame, no defects with the flame running right through the 1.5" evenly, with excellent quarter. Cheers, Richard |

I would suggest that you talk to Steve @ Colonial Tonewoods. I recently got a very nice set of maple from Steve and I'm pretty sure he would at least have the flamed stuff you are looking for. |

Gibson345 -- Grizzly won't sell and ship to Canada. Another sponsor source to check is BobC RCtonewoods and AC Woods. |

I would imagine most of the OLF sponsors that sell wood have maple. I have gotten some really nice big leaf from Larry Davis. Also check with Old Standard and Orcas Island Tonewoods. |

Richard, Looks like you are from Canada. Check out Exotic woods Inc Here or Sam at guitarwood.ca or A&M Woods Depending on where you are in Canada, you may be able to get great maple at your Local Lumber store. but the above suppliers will all ship |

richard, the guys in the states sell some great stuff. no doubt about it. but just so you know, we've got a canadian outfit on vancouver island that is also a olf sponsor. check out the AC Woods link above. if you look under 'products,' you'll even see a separate catagory for 'maple electric guitars' with pictures of some gorgous stuff. ed and jean are great and the shipping is faster and cheaper. from everything i see and read on this forum, though, it seems you can't go wrong with any of our sponsors. phil |

If none of the sponsors can help you out, try bowrivercraftwoods.com They are in Chilliwack, Near Vancouver BC. (western bigleaf only) |
