Here you can see all the woods used in construction: sinker redwood top, East Indian rosewood back and sides, mahogany neck, ebony fretboard.

The redwood top comes from ancient old growth redwoods that were harvested before 1860. In those days they would float lumber down the Klamath river, and inevitably some of the logs got jammed and sunk in the river. These sunken logs of 1000 year-old redwoods have been sitting in the Klamath river for hundreds of years developing mineralization from the river sediment. The appearance is truly beautiful in person, unlike any guitar top I've ever seen.

It's a super special instrument and it sounds as good as it looks!
