What he said .
I'm sure it's Imbuya, and I have chose this piece of sapwood with just abit of heartwood to it because I love the way it looks (reminds me of black korina).
I wish I could get some spalted maple around here. I bought this piece from some arabic wood suplier which is very nice but very hard to comunicate with because his Hebrew is as good as my arabic, and my arabic suck.
What is it with me holding the chisel upside down?
About the shape looking like a bass, I'm a bass player.
All I have left now is sanding and aplying oil and I'm done.
Oh and dansk, you didn't sound rude at all, I appriciate your comments.
