Chris,
Here is another source.http://www.acp-composites.com/home.php?cat=256. you could also try http://texasalmet.com/expresscore.php.

Personally, unless I had a need for alot of nomex, I would just go with LMI.

You can buy nomex for much less at the same company LMI buys theirs from than buying it from LMI.
I checked on this about five years ago when I used some with balsa wood to brace a guitar, a gentleman who builds violins uses balsa wood to build violins and they sound fantastic, it does not work well for guitars though.

I think there are more than a few builders and players who might disagree with that statement. There are plenty of nice sounding Spanish guitars that use balsa/carbon fiber for bracing. keys1, what company did you buy your nomex from?
