For sale there is one Brazilian rosewood bridge for acoustic guitar. Quarter sawn with straight and tight grain it goes jet black after oiled. The bridge is a very important piece in a guitar responsible for the transmission of the strings to the top, it also contributes substantially for the tone. This will make your guitar sound incredible in tone and speed of sound, being highly resonant, commonly considered thy best for most luthiers. This is from my private collection and measures 182x55x12,5mm. Free shipping worldwide by post.
Along the years I
have been collecting the most stunning guitar parts with the idea of making the
world’s finest guitars. I just realized that I won’t be able to make them all.
So, it’s time to let go some of these precious, hopefully to someone that enjoy
as much as I do.
What I will be selling it is hardly seen and extremely limited.
There is some history behind this piece of wood. The Queen of Portugal Maria II
(1777-1816) has developed the furniture style with her name, inspired in the
finest British furniture makers and the French movement Rocaille. This represents the neoclassical period in Portugal and
Brazil. This style of furniture was made by the finest woodworkers during the
18th and 19th centuries, all the original were made in
solid Brazilian rosewood with satinwood inlays as symbols of happiness and
love. Mahogany replicas were made in the late 19th century until early-mid the
20th century.
This piece of wood was salvaged from original Queen Maria II furniture; it is
estimated to be more than 200 years old.
