One of the rarest, most sought after rosewoods in the World, Brazilian Rosewood is renowned for its acoustic properties and elegant, colorfully patterned grain. Brazilian Rosewood works and glues well turning to an ultra-smooth natural polish. This is very old material that is bone dry. The back set has two bug holes present that falls outside of the template. There is a check in the sapwood. Each side has four pin holes that can be stabilized with CA glue and sawdust!
