Online
selection of Tonewood
Please
don't hesitate to contact us if you are interested in any piece
|
Our
product range consists only of tone wood that has been air dried - for
up to
12 years. We hold a large selection of more than 1.000 violin and viola
fronts and backs as well as a large
range of cello and double bass fronts.
We also have a large quantity of bass bars and block wood as well as
freshly cut and historic repair wood in stock. We are usually able to
tell you the date and place of felling for every piece of wood. After
you place your initial order we are then able to supply you with wood
from the same tree again. This is assuming stocks
are still available.
Fronts for violin and viola are sawn or split (if required the split
fronts can be sawn down the middle). Fronts for cello and double bass
are sawn. Bass bars for violin and viola are sawn or split. |
