No worries Mike. Plenty of trees down in Brooklyn too! And Staten Island, New Jersey, etc! Unfortunately, I do not have the means to resaw it. So it would require me to send it to someone who could. However, using some of the wood as an inlay or accent is a good idea. I can cut small stuff by hand, like bindings etc.

I got some coverage in a local paper. They got the facts wrong but it has generated some entries.

Just wanted to add that I bought a custom cedar/walnut dread from Tony and it is a fantastic guitar and that he is a top notch person as well
