Tough stuff to find without mortgaging your house to buy it.

Jim, beautiful veneers but too light for my tastes. Stained darker would be killer.

Will they go on a Banshee or Siren and what's the possibility they could get to Mccalla Al. in a few weeks?

Love the character but would like to see some more color to them.

Ric O'Shay · « **Reply #15 on:** May 02, 2012, 10:21:00 AM »

Character is great, but they do need a bit more color.

That is some killer spalted Jim.
As I am sure you know, it will darken a bit when glued. I did a spalted maple bow with just a hint of hickory brown stain washed over the top and it was relly cool. The light staining really set off the spalt lines.
Can't wait to see your bow.

#1 of both sets of pics(lower one) looks like a pointed arrowhead(on right) when laying beside each other.cool

Pretty and dramatic. The thing that's so nice about maple is how you can do just about anything you want with it on color. Very nice.
