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 sides have one penetrating pin hole present on each piece. There is a knot present on the inside straight edge of the back set. The template was drawn to avoid the knot.
