Members larry50 Posted September 21, 2008 Members Share Posted September 21, 2008 It's probably Albizia Saman an Indonesian wood more commonly known in tone wood circles as Monkey Pod. Similar to mahogany and saepele I believe, but I've never played a guitar made out of it. http://www.worldagroforestrycentre.org/sea/Products/AFDbases/seedsupplier/sslistsupliers.asp?seedid=195 Monkey Pod http://www.exotichardwoods-southamerica.com/monkeypod.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
