Tone Wood for Violin, Viola, Cello and Bass Tonewood
|
|
Note: Our wood is now priced according to what is in stock, according
to age. Please note that some of this wood is in short supply,
if at time of order it is unavailable, we will advise. Where there
is more than one date or a range listed, we will make the choice
according to availability. Shaded squares
are out of stock at time of last update.
The rule of thumb for aged wood is 10% extra for 7+ years old,
and 20% for 10+ years old. Viola wood will work for violin at
slightly higher cost if the violin selection is not available.
