Mahogany has been used for the necks of electric guitars since their development. It is most often used in Gibson-style set necks but works well for Fender-style bolt on necks. Khaya is an beautiful species of Mahogany from Africa. It is very similar to the traditional Honduran/Brazilian Mahogany in its look, density and sonic properties. The timber is medium-density, stable and strong. It has straight grain and carves and sands easily. This neck blank is big enough to cut 2 x one-piece necks of any standard size for a steel string acoustic or electric guitar. It is the easiest and quickest size blank to make necks from. Minimum dimensions - 89mm x 120mm x 750mm Quartersawn along the 89mm face Downgraded due to some angling of the grain compared to 1st grade. High quality wood
The Khaya Mahogany (Khaya ivorensis) which we sell is much closer in look to South American Mahogany than the the other African Mahogany also known as Sapele Mahogany. The grain, which has a reasonably average spacing, is very dark brown almost black. This grain is particularly open and will require filling before finishing.
