Here is an extremely high figure set of Brazilian Rosewood. This set has intense color, some flame and once finish is on it it will command attention from across the room.

The set is very solid and nice. There are a couple marks on the pictures that look like worm holes. These are all on the surface and will sand out and be completely gone if you pay attention when you are sanding. Also there is a very small 1" long crack near the bottom of the sides that should be repaired, but it is stable and is a quick fix.

The set is large enough for a dread.

There is no buy it now for this auction, and we have a reserve of $550 on it.

The auction ends tomorrow (Thursday 5/20) at 3PM EST.

Good Luck

Brock, this looks like a sister set (although far more contrast) to a set I bought here 9 months ago. make sense? If so, NICE Braz. (If not, nice Braz, too. If only I had the cash)

I'll go $550. I was surprised the last set went for that, and I'll be surprised if this one does.
