I played a Laurent Brondel guitar made from Wenge that is my favorite of the half dozen of his I tried. I also do have several sets of perfectly quartered Wenge in my woodlocker is case someone insists on it, and a I’ve had it for 25+ years, but I hope to never be called upon to use it. I have used it for architectural projects, and I simply hate working it for all the reasons others have mentioned. It is no joke to say if you so much as touch it you better have your tweezers handy.
