http://www.hanoverbrazil.com/rosewood-guitars.shtml http://www.madeirainc.com/?sessionid=98 ... b8fb487605 http://www.ronay.com.br/index.asp http://www.follmann-tonewoods.com/homee.php last time i checked these shipped worldwide. thye rangefrom pretty expensive to rather sensible (for BRW). the 3rd one may take some time to respond but it´s supposedly reputable. the 4th i never got an answer from (not saying it is a scam either). never bought from any of them, FYI. if you just need a bridge blank i could send you one. no documents, but you´d only pay shipping. all the best, Miguel. |

Darren Hippner. He sells on eBay. http://www.ebay.com/itm/BRAZILIAN-ROSEW ... 5b052b5753. I've gotten bridge blanks and head plates on auction, and binding strips directly from him. If you are looking for something specific, contact him. He has lots of Brazilian. He's in upper Washington state, and brings his Canadian orders across the border, and ships by Can.Post. Alex |

I've bought from Darren Hippner a few times. He's a good seller. Nice BRW. |

Personally, with all the broo-ha-ha surround the legality in this country to sell the stuff, I won't be buying any ever again. That said, Darren's wood is exceptional, if you must buy some. |

Doug, I've contacted him via the eBay ask a question box at the bottom of one of his listings. I would just check the "other" box, tell him what you are interested in, and go from there. I've bought quite a few items from him, and never been disappointed. Good luck! Alex |

Doug, you could try Gary Chanin at Chanin Hardwood in Edmonton. He is a little tough to deal with but has an AMAZING stock of wood and is probably the most wood savvy guy you will ever meet. |
