I have a similar problem … spot a nice piece of wood and think “that’ll do nicely on a build” and grab it.

I’ve probably got enough of those nice pieces to build all the guitars I’m ever going to build.

Naturally, I bought something new for my last build …

I've got enough old brazilian mahogany to do a neck through and another body plus old northern ash for necks, also there's a tree trunk down the track where I live that I'm waiting to aquire. Farmers brother is supposed to be sawing a metre out the middle for me that I'll take to a friends to get cut into board. Spalty looking sycamore.

I have some thinner boards of mahogany that I want to cut and plane to make a hollow body superstrat too lol

I think it might just fit through my old trusty bandsaw

You don't want to use that old Brazilian mahogany.  Get yourself some decent new stuff.  I'll do swapsies if you like.

No it's pretty horrible stuff, I hate it! 🤣 

It's mad stuff, changes colour depending on the light
