    Hi mate,

    They are all quartersawn I believe. Feel free to come and inspect, they were purchased many years ago from a retired guitar maker. They would be perfect for necks or backs etc.

    Are the measurements correct? The 200mm wide one looks a lot longer than the other two.

    I will take these please! Could you please quote for postage to Torquay 3228.
    I am quite happy for you to cut the 1500mm long board in half to make 2x 750mm boards to get it in the post.
    Cheers Cal
