Insane Redwood Top

[veatch]

A bit of a stretch for this forum, but for the builders out there, this is one insane top:

eBay - Redwood

Hmm, I find that figuring a bit disturbing myself. Someone should make a metal shredder out of it /emoticons/default_smile.png

Wow. Gorgeous. Is that something you'd use as a veneer or would that be the guitar body?

It says it's 1/4" think so it would have to be for a top. I like it!

kinda looks like the inside of a lung...WAY COOL!

 

[gregc]

That's just NASTY!

... and NOT in a good way, IMO.

Yup, that's some mean-looking carnage there... /emoticons/default_smile.png/emoticons/default_smile.png

It reminds me of a short story by Stephen King, /emoticons/default_smile.png

It's got a really strange 3D quality to it - it looks like an electron microscope picture of lung tissue or something equally unpleasant... or the pictures of the Red Weed from the illustrations for Jeff Waynes "War of the Worlds" album.

 

[Mindseyes]

Thats Sick!...........in a good way kinda...

Dude! I thought the same thing!

 

[edgar_allan_poe]

I have never liked that type of figuring. Is burl really redwood? I don't think they are the same thing, but I could be wrong.

If you were going with redwood, Nik Huber can't be touched.

 

[cmatthes]

If it's redwood, it can be burled.

Not real crazy about that figure myself either.

 

[HamerHokie]

You could make a Lungcaster.

 

[ArnieZ]

Too chaotic for me, don't like it at all. Have to wonder if the wood could even vibrate straight /emoticons/default_smile.png It does look like something out of Histology lab!

Gregger may get mad at me for posting this, but here's my nearly finished Redwood Huber that will be featured at the NAMM show. (No burst/clear-coat yet)

 

[bubs_42]

Really no one... It looks like Freddy Krugers Face.... The Freddycaster..

 

[mhmike]

I'd rock that as a top in a second. It looks like organ meat!

 

[BCR Greg]

I like Redwood....

(note to mods- none of these guitars are for sale)
