Just listed some very nice Brazilian Cherry sets. http://rctonewoods.com/RCT_Store/brazilian-cherry-c-1_118/brazilian-cherry-1216002-p-9202.html
Also stayed tuned. We will soon have Torrefied soundboards in all the spruces.

That's really beautiful stuff. I saw some nice pieces of that at one of my lumber suppliers a few months ago and have been wanting to give it a try. Jatoba is what they were calling it and it's heavy and hard as nails. Those are some beautiful sets.

J Jatoba is the correct name for this wood. 8-) Bruce Sexauer loves it.

I chose Jatoba for my first build. It works very similar to Bubinga.
Even the un-figured pieces are gourgeous. Great price.
