Just as an aside, Walnut often gets pared with Redwood here in the US (and elsewhere?) and is known as a killer combination. I think the basics are what your builder has for experience and reaction to this.......and, that there is "redwood" and then there is REDWOOD. A wide variety, but the best redwoods, with great build properties and some of the signature redwoods (Tunnel 13, 14, LS) bring a lot to the table and stand on their own for superior sound qualities.
Just a thought! Will be sure to follow your build!

Thanks Fred - it’s a lot of fun but also a lot of responsibility to get it right!
I have never played redwood - it’s a £400 upgrade for this build but I will certainly consider it.
