In Response To: Re: Material: Looking for exotic woods (Bill Hamm)

I've dealt with several smaller suppiers of luthier woods-it pays to give them a call or email if you are interested in non-guitar sized pieces, as they often have offcuts and surplus at good prices. BTW, for small inlays, guitar headplate overlay stock is useful.
I recommend:
Bruce Kreps at Notable Woods http://www.notablewoods.com/

Also:
Oregon Wild Wood http://www.oregonwildwood.com/

Big supplier with personal service - contact Todd Taggart via email ... http://www.alliedlutherie.com/

Merry Christmas, everybody!

John
