This isn't quite enough stuff to be called a "kit" but it is a really nice collection of woods that will build an excellent guitar. It contains:

* A beautiful set of Oregon Myrtle
* A 4A Redwood top
* A nice old growth Brazilian Rosewood fingerboard
* 4 pieces of Brazilian Rosewood binding (they are straight despite the odd picture)
* Brazilian headplate
* A Brazilian Bridge blank & end graft wedge

Retail value for all this stuff is $350, but a bid of $300 will end the auction early and get free domestic shipping.

The auction ends tomorrow (Monday) at 3PM EST.

Good luck.

Brock - are the sides or back freshly sanded? Just want to know if the colour will match.....also, any issues with the BRW pieces being shipped to Canada?

Thanks,

Thanks Chuck! You got me off the hook. I really did not need to buy this, it was just so nice looking. Have fun.
