Very nice piece of Kahikatea that I purchased from a demolition yard. I've had much success with this wood as a soundboard for my guitars.
Funky shape! Feels just fine to play on your knee - even better with a strap.
Kauri wood produces a 1st class sounding instrument.
The first of my stylized scrolled head stocks, with paua inlays. Top quality Grover slot-style machine heads.
