Meanwhile, at Warmoth...a new mystery body wood!!

[DangerousR6]

Gonna go out on a limb and say yellow pine. Check out the Janka scale. Not exotic. Redwood was a good clue.

LMAO...'you went out on a limb"... :laughing11:

 

[Axkoa]

Maybe Tassie Blackwood?

Generally Tasmania Blackwood is a little lighter colour isn’t it?

 

[Cagey]

That's why they invented stain.

 

[stratamania]

I'm going to branch in a different direction...

Red Cedar ?

 

[Fat Pete]

I'm going to branch in a different direction...

Red Cedar ?

This is my guess too.

Either way those samples look great.

 

[Nightclub Dwight]

I might be nuts, but maybe some sort of oak with a stain?

 

[frown]

I'm thinking stained / dyed swamp ash...  :icon_scratch:

 

[aarontunes]

Roasted Ash :turtle:

Roasted. Mmmmmm...... :icon_thumright:

OK, now. Is there a significant difference in weight over un-roasted?

 

[Timmsie95]

This gives me ideas for a new bass...

 

[swarfrat]

Apparently they stopped roasting before it turned completely to ash.

Hmm. Could've given my dear departed mother some cooking tips...

Roasted Ash :turtle:

We have a winner!

What do I win?

 

[rapfohl09]

Ooooooo I want one with a super thin oil finish.

Those look like they got some serious gloss on them, not my cup of tea.

I'm with ya on that..just not into gloss finishes anymore... :guitarplayer2:

 

[pabloman]

Satin finish roasted ash soloist body, roasted all maple, no inlay neck. Black hipshot hard tail, a pair of SD blackouts and some black sperzels. Yeah baby. :bananaguitar:

 

[MikeW]

Maybe the next exotic wood will be Dogwood??

 

[Cagey]

Speaking of noses... roasted Maple smells like Maple syrup. Wonder what roasted Dogwood would smell like? And speaking of raunchy odors, any woodworkers here ever get a hunk of Red Oak that when cut, smells like a skunk's armpit?

Roasted Ash :turtle:
