Thanks for all your replies. Although Im greatful, I do detect some distain in some of the replies. I felt it best to reply just to be blatently honest with you....
Believe me, I've done MOST of what you guys suggested already with little or no luck. I've looked in yellow pages, done search engine searches, spoken to local timber companies and what have you but frankly to no avail. Cabinet makers is a great idea and one I will follow up this week.
YES, David Dyke, Craft supplies and Touchstone Tonewoods are superb companies im sure but buying over the net or even mail order is, in my opinion, a little restrictive in the choices you can get by personal business.
Drak, yes im sure you spent a lot of time looking. Mind you, if there was this thing called the internet where you could go somewhere and ask someone to point you in the right direction, im sure you would have done it, or are you the sort of person who doesnt look at maps when travelling long distance? Seems a shame to waste the experience and knowledge of others reinventing the wheel over and over again when a simple "Go here" would suffice, wouldnt you agree?
I thought the purpose of this forum and the Project Guitar website was specifically to SHARE INFORMATION ABOUT THE FABRICATION OF GUITARS. Sadly, there is little or no information that is specific to the UK, and thats not a failing but is something that should be addressed to help others like me who want to try and do something unique, and It would be nice to feel that I did the right thing by asking your opinions first rather than feel belittled due to lack of knowledge.
Still, no harm done this time and Thanks to you all for taking the time to reply. Im sure ill be around for a while to try your paitence again.
Cheers
