This is something a bit off the beaten path, a large set of Bois D' Rose, a dalbergia from Madagascar (not to be confused with Dalbergia Baronii). This wood has a stellar tap tone and is the color of an eggplant - somewhere between dark purple and black.

The set is large enough for a dread, and it is a pretty rare find. These sets only come available every once in a while.

Retail value is $250. We will include free domestic shipping for a bid of $225.

Good luck.

Noon EST.

This wood builds really nice guitars. It is very nice and has a good crisp tap tone.

I'll be happy to ease your burden...let me know when you plan your next trip to Edmonton :D

If I wasn't so short on money right now, I'd place a higher bid. This is a gorgeous set!
