jessejames Posted April 9, 2011 Report Share Posted April 9, 2011 Wondering what exotic or awesome tops you are using or saving for special projects. Here are 2 of mine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
verhoevenc Posted April 9, 2011 Report Share Posted April 9, 2011 These veneers for a veneered carved top: And a drop-top that is the sister to this acoustic back: I've also got some carved top fiddle-back honduran mahogany as well.

avengers63 Posted April 9, 2011 Report Share Posted April 9, 2011 Some redwood burl I got ahold of a couple of years ago. I stabilized it with polycrylic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MzI Posted April 9, 2011 Report Share Posted April 9, 2011 Quilted Birdseye Maple with mineral staining. Not a clue what I am going to do with it. The board is 5' long with some warping and twisting so its sitting for that rainy day project. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Southpa Posted April 10, 2011 Report Share Posted April 10, 2011 This one still needs to be resawn. I see a possible carved top LP in there somewhere. And the current one in progress... I just bought a US made Ridgid brand bandsaw w/ riser block so I'm probably going to be busy resawing lots of maple tops in the near future.
