Cocobolo Rosewood 1-1/4 x 5 x 72

You are viewing a phenomenal and very rare piece of Cocobolo Rosewood (Dalbergia retusa).  Measures a solid 1-1/4" x 5" x 72".  Kiln-dried (to about 6 to 8%).  Ends were sealed long ago, and it has been in dry storage literally for decades and is just one of a number of pieces that we are finally willing to put on the market!  It has been lightly surfaced to get a better look at its color and grain, which is gorgeous!  Photos are of both sides of the actual piece you will receive.  You will not find cocobolo like this just about anywhere else, so grab this piece while you can!  Great piece for a large variety of projects.

Luthiers:  This piece will work well if re-sawn for the sides of guitars.  We have a number of other smaller blanks (measuring roughly 5" to 6"W x 24"L), which will also be listed, that were specifically cut to this size for the purpose of being re-sawn (in half) to get two bookmatched pieces for guitar-set backs.  If purchased in conjunction with the piece in this listing, you will have stunning back and side sets!
