Official Luthiers Forum!

I posted over 20 Back/Side sets in the Classifieds under the title:
"B/S Sets -- Bocote, Bubinga, Claro, Spalted Mango, Zebrawood"

I will be continuing my education - most likely, starting in January. As such, I will soon be phasing into lutherie as a part-time job rather than a full-time occupation. The majority of these back/side sets are part of my inventory that I never wanted to sell -- although, there are a few sets sprinkled in that are decent quality but nothing out of the ordinary. However, quite a few of these sets represent items that I think fall into the "special grade" category and others are just really nice sets. Every one of these sets is discounted heavily.

The reason I am selling them is to raise funds but also streamline my inventory. I just started working with a dealer now who pretty much only wants guitars made out of the Rosewoods. And most of my commissions are always Ebony, Ziricote, or some kind of Rosewood. Since I will soon be going part-time, I will likely just send the majority of my instruments thru my dealer and take very few direct commissions. The reality is that it could be decades before I get to use these sets and I would rather put the money into my tuition. If you are interested, check out the classifieds.

Many Thanks,
Simon
