Here is a nice set of Madagascar Rosewood. I suspect that this species is commercially on its way out, so if you are thinking of stocking up this might be the time to do it. This set is well seasoned, high contrast and large enough for an OM+ size guitar. The pattern on it is a 15 1/4" GC size guitar (with a bit of room to spare on both sides) and the sides are 4 5/8" wide. There are some blemeshes outside of the pattern, but inside the pattern is solid.

Retail value on this set is $325 (when you can find sets like this), but we will end the auction early and get free domestic shipping with a bid of $275.

The auction ends tomorrow (Sunday 6/6) at 3PM EST.

They do when you put something like that up. I'd have taken it if he didn't. I have gotten two of these sets and they are beautiful.

Jordan nice second post to the forum! Well done, I might have gone for this set myself - it's a beauty.
