I just received my order from Hibdon. Someone here suggested I try them. All I can say is wow! Some if the prettiest wood I have seen, and they threw in some bonus parts. Incredible safe packing. I'm a fan. Mike |

Actually, it is their coco I'm raving about. The pictures were awsome, but reality was even better. Speaking of, can coco be used as a fretboard material? It sure seems hard enough (I'm new to coco) |

They have so much more than what is on the website. Last year when I was there for the Gateway Area Luthiers Show I almost bought some blanks to make coco necks from. |
