olddog Posted May 27, 2007 Report Share Posted May 27, 2007 Hi. I want to make a solid body " Rick like" 12 string, and was told they are made of eastern rock maple. Can someone tell me where I can get a body blank? I was able to find quilted and flamed maple blanks, and rock maple wings, but not something called eastern rock maple in a full sized blank. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quarter Posted May 27, 2007 Report Share Posted May 27, 2007 Eastern and rock / hard rock / are the same, just different names / terms. Sometimes also called sugar or just hard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mattia Posted May 27, 2007 Report Share Posted May 27, 2007 Head to your local hardwood joint and pick up some rock or hard maple, 2" stock, likely need to buy a blank to make a 2-piece body. Should be plenty cheap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
