Tonewood Spalted Tamarind15-17% MoistureGlued

Create a truly one-of-a-kind electric guitar with this Spalted Tamarind Guitar Body Blank, prized for its dramatic black spalting lines, rich golden-brown tones, and naturally artistic figure. Each blank is unique, offering exceptional visual character while providing the strength and stability needed for custom guitar builds. Carefully seasoned with approximately 15–17% moisture content, it machines, routes, and finishes well, making it an excellent choice for luthiers and builders looking to craft a distinctive, high-performance instrument.

Please note: This body blank is made by gluing two pieces together on the top and bottom. The glue line runs through the thickness of the body, not from side to side.
