All Quartersawn! I've never seen flecking like this in Cherry! I included a close-up picture of the flecking. This set has the most wonderful pink highlights and streaking I have ever seen in Cherry! It's hard to describe or do justice with pictures to just how amazing this looks in person.

Black Cherry is like Soft Maple but with a shift towards more overtones and low end. It's one of the most overlooked and undervalued tonewoods ever. Cherry definitely has a cult following!

(Dimensions listed in "Item specifics".)

*At least one face surfaced to 120 grit*

*Shown with and without solvent*

*Example MOE of Rosewood or Spruce: 32,076 / 59,259*

*Picture 4,5 and 6 are examples of this woods color and fleck, across all sets, from this billet and not exact closeups*

*I've said many times how hard it is for me to cut off perfectly good wood because of defects! Picture 1 is what the set looks like if you cut off the defects at 5" and 5-1/4". Picture 2 is what it actually looks like. Once you trim off the defects, you can use the extra wood for inlays and such.*



I'm looking for feedback. Please leave me notes as far as how you prefer part dimensions and construction or species you'd like me to change or supply.
