Up for grabs this time is a really nice set of Lacewood + a AAA Engelmann top. This will certainly build a beautiful guitar, this is beautiful stuff.

Retail value is $150. Bidding will go through tomorrow at noon, or you can buy it now for $135 and we will throw in free shipping in the US.

As always thanks for your support.

I dunno, Filippo, but I don't see why not a classical. You don't see many Zebrawood classicals or Bubinga classicals either, but I love the way both sound. I don't see why this wouldn't work too. I hadn't even thought about a Flamenco. Who knows, maybe! I really wanted to try some Engelmann. I loved the Lacewood binding on my EIR guitar. This could look really good with some dark bindings.

i really dont have much vested interest in this because quite honestly i dont have the money to spend, but would it help if there was a day or two "heads up" before the auction actually opened? like i said, doesnt matter much to me, just an idea. maybe its already been mentioned. then at least there would be a scramble to be the first post if you were going to offer the "buy it now" price.
