Long considered the Holy Grail of guitar tonewoods, Brazilian Rosewood is one of the rarest and most tightly controlled woods under the CITES international treaty. It is so rare in fact, that wood used must be proven to be harvested before 1993 to receive approval for legal use in trade. The Old Growth Brazilian Rosewood back and side set used for this incredible instrument was recovered from a shipwreck off the coast of Brazil. The ship left Brazil in 1938 carrying a load of Brazilian Rosewood logs earmarked for furniture production and destined for Denmark when it went down. This amazing wood, remained at the bottom of the ocean until just a few years ago when a small amount of it was recovered.

This one of a kind instrument will ship with a certificate of authenticity, CITES paperwork for legal transport of Brazilian Rosewood, and a Custom Hardshell Case.
