That's right folks...these could be the last of the remaining intense quilt Sapele boards in the country. I'll only have a little better than a handful of these sets available, but it's going to be a few weeks.
Meanwhile, soon I will be posting around 40+ sets of wood on the NET site, with everything from figured African Mahogany, to Malaysian Blackwood. I'll have around 20 sets of some lighter-duty quilt sapele also, and at some very attractive pricing.
Keep your eyes peeled for New England Tonewood's "1st Annual Going Out of Business Sale".

Oh...I am not taking reservations on the sets shown in the picture above. I don't know how many sets there will be, and I want to give everyone equal opportunity to fight over them.

Hey, that stuff looks mighty familiar. You have to run it through the planer, it looks all wrinkly.

My skin looks like that when I stay in the pool too long.

[QUOTE=Hesh1956] This is kind of like when you were a retired luthier right? [/QUOTE]

Well, perhaps it's like a band's Farewell Tour #2 kind of thing. I'm liquidating, but will continue to hunt for woods that folks may want, and make them available every now and again.

Yeah, you said it! I couldn't resist...

Frankly, I'm surprised Bob didn't find this stuff first. I never beat him to anything!

Sam,
I have absolutely no clue how much shipping to the UK would be, as I've never done it. There's a first time for everything though.
