Figured Sapele Solid Body Guitar Blank

The Sapele tree is found in tropical West & Central Africa. Even when without figure as this board Sapele has an amazing luster and takes a beautiful polish.

This piece has a crack that can be seen on the front upper left side. If seen from the end grain, it runs toward the middle of the guitar about an inch and half but we think it should run out and not cause any issues with the blank. Call us if you would like to know more.
