As rocking horse droppings, Quilted Ash.

Not sure what I'm going to do with them yet, could make at least 4 Les Paul caps (arched tops), or slice them up for drop top guitars.

    Look spectacular! You'll have to post pics finished body when you've decided what to use them for. They'll sell in a crack!

    Superb find. 

    I think they'd look great on a natural finished Thinline Tele body.

  • I'd say make a batch of double cut les paul style guitars with p90s. Maybe something a but different too like a cedar back and rosewood fingerboard. It would have to have a light transparent nitro finish. That would be awesome.

    I think it would look great for something completely non-traditional, like a Millimetric.

    Or something like a Robin Ranger - although with a smaller/no pickguard - sort-of traditional, but also a bit radical...
