I have a friend who would love a guitar with some sandalwood in it. There are of course a few different types of sandalwood so it sort of depends on what you want. I've not found any and it would be difficult to get it in from India or Africa. I asked the guys at RC Tonewoods and they can't get any. It seems only to be available in log form which isn't legal to export...
I'm not sure where to look next but if I find out anyone I'll keep you posted Chris, & if you could do the same that would be appreciated.
