I reckon the option to work with customer woods should be open, but only to appropriate woods.

is open, but you still pay as if warmoth delivered the wood.

Oftentimes customer supplied wood requires more work than pulling a piece off our shelves.  A lot of the wood arrives with a slight bow or still needs to be thickness sanded and glued up.  The end result is more work for Warmoth, which translates to expenses.  Not charging more for customer supplied wood is actual quite the deal.

actually, all the carved tops. there's just 1 padouk top left, there's just 2 korina etc etc. the idea is cool, but without choices, there aint much to choose from :D

oh, by the way. suppose I ask for a padouk top, or a rosewood top, but I dont wanna pick out of the unique choice section, is that still possible? i know i will get just any piece (thats up to the standard) and thats cool. i just want the wood, regardless of the looks. and will that be cheaper than the unique pick-section?

@Eric: I'm going to send you an email in a few moments... I've emailed at sales at warmoth dot com early this week (almost a week ago) and i havent gotten a word back yet, so, thats why I do it this way, ok? (or gregg, whatever is best :) )

Non Unique Choices tops are still available per the price tables you see on each body page. You won't see much in Padouk because of our low stock of 3/4" tops in that wood and there's typically not much to see as far as wild grain patterns in that species.  FYI - Eric isn't in the sales department any longer. Sales guys are your best bet to run down availability and pricing.

I know, but when I email eric, I get an answer. as said,I mailed at sales, but got no answer after a week...not something like, hi we will look it up, nothing. Eric is kind-off my last resort when it came to this (and I've talked with him before about my stuff :) )
 
No worries Orpheo.  I've got a pretty full plate, but there are still a couple old timers I take care of.  To be honest though, the sales reps can often respond faster than I can, but I'll be sure to give you my full attention in due time!

Just for the record Orpheo and I are NOT the same person. :)

Anyway. I was mostly interested in spalted and quilt maple laminates. Thanks Gregg
