ansil Posted August 30, 2004 Report Share Posted August 30, 2004 i was looking for some Plum to do perhaps a top on aguitar for a future project but i was thinking of maybe doing a amp head out of it. well i logged in after a screwed up day thinking i would have an answer since my yahoo had said i had a reply so never mind i withdraw the question. [noted i appreciate the humour but i was quite serious, and have exauhsted my resources in this town.] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guitar1Jesse Posted August 30, 2004 Report Share Posted August 30, 2004 (edited) Can't you find plums at any grocery store? Edited August 30, 2004 by Guitar1Jesse Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ACSpike Posted August 30, 2004 Report Share Posted August 30, 2004 I had a few plum logs around but they were small (as I expect most plum would be) and full of insect holes. Do you really think you could make a guitar out of that? I think it would be to small to book match. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ansil Posted August 31, 2004 Author Report Share Posted August 31, 2004 wasn't looking to bookmatch it was going to do sort of a patchwork quilt top on a guitar. i dont' posess the skills necesarry to do the bookmatching high quality work with wood but i can however make a patchwork quilt type top with ease.

ACSpike Posted August 31, 2004 Report Share Posted August 31, 2004 Then the plum I had might do the trick. Send me an email and I will see if my father can locate it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aeli Posted August 31, 2004 Report Share Posted August 31, 2004 I have a plum tree in my garden and I am planning to cut it but it isn't thick enough for anything, not even patchwork, whatever it is. Is plum quilted? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
