Can anyone give me a source for a matching set of classical guitar rosette, purfling and back stripe? I used to see these on ebay but not any more.
Thanks,
Pat

Although the above has a good reputation, the free samples they sent me years ago were not to my liking. So, if you want to try them, be sure that you actually can see a closeup photo or actual samples of the rosettes.

What I did not like was that the rosettes were not made entirely of tiny blocks, but included some larger wedge shaped pieces to make the curves. My experience was over 10 years ago, so I do not know what their current rosettes look like.
