It will make high quality acoustic instruments. We personally recover most of our trees from logging site where the trees were being sent to chip mills.  The areas that the trees are removed from are replanted with new trees making this a very eco-friendly and sustainable guitar wood.  The cool wet air of the Oregon Coast makes the perfect environment for slow consistent growth of acoustic instrument quality wood.  We air dry our Maple wood for at least three years.   \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin: 0in 0in 12.0pt 0in;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 11.5pt; font-family: 'Helvetica',sans-serif; color: black;\"\u003eThere are 25 matched pieces 0.115 x 1 5\/8 x 32\" and one neck piece 1.2 x 3 x 11″.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin: 0in 0in 12.0pt 0in;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 11.5pt; font-family: 'Helvetica',sans-serif; color: black;\"\u003eOur photos are taken two ways.  The inside ribs are wet to show what the finished instrument will look like and the outside ribs are dry to show what the wood will look like when it arrives.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin: 0in 0in 12.0pt 0in;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 11.5pt; font-family: 'Helvetica',sans-serif; color: black;\"\u003eFree shipping to lower forty eight states.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin: 0in 0in 12.0pt 0in;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 11.5pt; font-family: 'Helvetica',sans-serif; color: black;\"\u003eIf you do not find exactly what you are looking for please contact us at kevin@woodfromthewest.com or 559.349.5917.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Wood From the West","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54373039407414,"sku":"GI15","price":205.79,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0989\/4114\/1302\/files\/GI15.gif?v=1785960092","url":"https:\/\/sparisdress.com\/products\/maple-lute-ribs-with-neck-gi15","provider":"Sparisdress","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
