Go for it. It's a very good tonewood. A lot of the same tone characteristics as IRW.

Here's one from Batson brothers. Guess the smell didn't bother them much. Burn incense if the smell bothers you.
It's well worth the effort.

Tom Lang, any chance you have a pic of the Mahogany L-O with the Zebrawood binding? Sounds nice.

Anyone know a source for some very nice striped zebrawood binding as shown in BobC's pic? I would like to see what it looks like with Mahogany.

Hey Darryl, I'm afraid that in the flurry of moving my home and shop from Virginia to Texas, things like photos fell by the wayside. It was a neat looking little guitar. If it ever comes back for ?, I intend to take some pictures. I've let way too many out the door without making bragging pix. Thanks for asking.
Tom
