new idea for forum

Post by Robbie O'Brien » Tue Jul 15, 2008 2:04 am

Bob,

Your end wedge thread got me thinking about another idea for the forum. I particpate in a Brazilian guitar building forum too and they have put together a thread on tonewoods in Brazil. There is a picture and some properties about each species. Maybe someone in Australia, perhaps a tonewood dealer, could put together a dictionary of tonewoods from down under.
