Hi Gang,

Hope all is well. So I may be finally putting together a custom Garcia Wolf build. I would be supplying the woods.

Does anyone know any trustworthy tonewood dealers out there who would have things like vintage Western Maple, vintage Cocobolo, vintage Ebony?

Am looking for older stuff that's dry both for tone and weight reduction.

I see some things online, but would prefer a recommendation that someone knows if possible.

Thank you in advance!

That is stuff I would buy local with the ability to inspect and select specific boards. BTW, don't call it tone wood, unless you want to get ripped off.

I've bought some sweet pieces of wood from Bow River Wood to Works in Canada.

Bill, tgo

Agree. Not sure of a place in the New York area, but will poke around just in case.

Thanks! Some fun pieces on there for sure.

Great advice on not calling it tone wood. Sorry, I have no recommendations, but I just had to say that.
