I was really interested in this particular set of Cuban Mahogany. Finding a set with this amount of figure is pretty rare. It's also a very dense set; Brock also did some measurements and it's about 20% more dense than some other Cuban Mahogany sets.

The bridge and headstock veneer are Brazilian. The fretboard is Madagascar. Binding will also be Brazilian.
