rob Posted March 6, 2004 Report Share Posted March 6, 2004 Thanks for that, I can now safely say my utile mahogany neck blank is rift sawn! What would you all say is best for strength out of them and what one would be best for different types of flaming/qulited woods? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
www Posted March 6, 2004 Report Share Posted March 6, 2004 Quartesawn is the strongest of them and the quilt pattern comes from being flat sawn. I am not exactly sure about flame! I was told rift along time ago, but don't hold me to that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GuitarMaestro Posted March 6, 2004 Report Share Posted March 6, 2004 The flame pattern can occur with all three times of sawing as far as I know. At least my flamed maple neck blank I have here is definately quatersawn and has a very nice flame pattern still. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
