Oh dear - I thought for sure that folks would realize that the log is petrified wood.
It is in fact from the Petrified Forest National Park in Arizona. It was a sinker, all right, a few million years ago.

It really would be cool to use as an electric top
Maybe with an ancient kauri body and sinker mahogany neck. |

Haven't come across too many rock topped electrics.

the tap-tone is very monolithic, stonelike if you will-it should make a timeless peice and command a high price-

Apparently some saw this for what it was, but I naively thought it sincere. I have been taken down a notch in my own estimation. I will have to be more cautious about trusting my fellow human beings in the future.

Guys, I have to say that although I certainly intended a joke, I thought that it would be rather apparent that the "log" was not wood any longer. The whole point of the post was that after being under water (and earth!) for a few million years, it was a "sinker supreme" as I called it. The replies surprised me!

There is a very good reason for that.
