African ebony guitar back and sides set classic size grade AAA*

Diospyros crassiflora from Nigeria

1050kg/m3

Photo is of actual set.

African ebony is very scarce in the sizes required for guitar back and sides sets and is therefore seldom offered. We have been able to intercept and prepare a small number of guitar sets in this timber while cutting large stock of billets for other purposes.

Please note that very small wormholes can be present in this species and some sets may show up to three or four of these within the template area. It is generally accepted that these wormholes are not significant and fill very easily in the finishing process.

AAA – Quarter sawn wood or nearly so.

AA – Wood that is quartered to one edge, (where the centre joint of the back will be ), gradually straying from the quarter ending up slab sawn at the opposite edge.

A – Wood that is slab sawn, the main slab sawn area being approximately half way across the board.

* - One or more asterisks may be added to the grade mark to indicate wood that is aesthetically more pleasing or desirable by virtue of colour, intensity of figure or fineness of grain.

Back and sides sets are pre matched for colour and character.

Back and sides sets frequently are different grades for the back and the sides e.g. AAA sides and AA back. The valuation of these sets assumes the back and the sides each represent 50% of the value of a set and are then added together.

Western size backs 2pc 560mm x 205mm and up x 4mm
sides 2pc 830mm x 120mm and up x 3.5mm

Classic size backs 2pc 530mm x 190mm and up x 4mm
sides 2pc 780mm x 100mm and up x 3.5mm
