The hardest, heaviest home grown wood. Shrubby tree yielding small dimensions. Hard to work, but with a wonderful dense smooth surface. Very tough so good for tool handles, tuning pegs. For bigger dimensions, use tropical lemon wood or Degame, which also cut & plane easily.
IMPORTANT CUSTOMER NOTICE
After many years in the timber trade, David Dyke will be retiring at the end of September 2026, at which point Luthiers Supplies will cease trading.
The final day for website orders is Wednesday 23rd September 2026.
Over the coming weeks, Andrew & Lewis may be working reduced hours as they prepare to launch Heritage Tonewoods, a new business established to ensure customers can continue to source high-quality tonewoods and specialist timbers after David’s retirement.
Thank you for your patience, understanding and continued support during this transition.
