perhellion Posted February 2, 2006 Report Share Posted February 2, 2006 I saw an Ibanez RG on ebay that the seller had added a veneer top to, and it was spalted maple veneer. Any idea where to buy veneer like this? I was surprised, due to the "soft spots" inherent in spalted wood, that veneer would even be possible.

Mattia Posted February 5, 2006 Report Share Posted February 5, 2006 If you're looking for actual slice, less than a mm thick veneer in spalt maple, I don't know how much you'll find. Spalted wood isn't the most stable stuff to begin with. Drop tops, however, are easily found. Lots of canadian eBay sellers with spalt wood, in particular.

Duff Beer Man Posted February 6, 2006 Report Share Posted February 6, 2006 i just searched and found a who crap load of spalted maple on ebay, what did u search for? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
perhellion Posted February 6, 2006 Author Report Share Posted February 6, 2006 Lots of spalted maple (and other species of wood). It's the adding of the word "veneer" that yields no results. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arseneau Posted February 11, 2006 Report Share Posted February 11, 2006 You don't really want anything thinner than, say, 1/8" (if that) since, as mattia said, spalted is very unstable in thin slices. I got a beuatiful bookmatched spalted set on ebay that's slightly under 1/4" for $20 a few months back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
