im going to do a cheapish but good quality first build just to build up my skills a bit, although I can use all of the tools
But for my good one i'm planning, i wanted a Tasmanian Blackwood body & Neck, with a Master Grade tassie blackwood top from Aus Tonewoods and a rosewood fretboard. I've just been looking at australian timber websites since i don't have a lumber yard or anything around me.
(for the cheaper first build its going to have a maple neck for ease of carving and just getting used to carving a neck)
Sorry if i hijacked your thread
