Description
Blonde, lovely nice lightweight timber, perfect for solid bodies. This tree was sourced locally, it had to be removed due to it being too close to the resident’s house. Rather than being chipped, it gets to be transformed into someone’s treasured electric guitar.
Air dried weight at approximately twelve percent moisture, would be 480 kilograms per cubic metre.
David from Australian Guitar Timbers mills all his logs, which sit in strip and air dry for at least two years before being cut into blocks. The timber is placed in a Solar or Electric Kiln and dried further to between 8 and 10 percent moisture content. Nearly all of David’s logs are sourced locally here in Queensland except for the Tasmanian Timbers. Rather than trees being sent to be chipped they are saved and collected to be repurposed. Australian Guitar Timbers sustainably collect wood and love that they can convert the timber into a much-loved instrument part.
