Cocobolo concert guitar

Cocobolo has always been my "intimate favorite" wood for classical guitar construction. It produces very stable and consistent instruments and the wood is terrific from an acoustic and aesthetical point of view. Cocobolo works fantastically well with Cedar and Spruce.  It has become increasingly popular especially since speculation started around Brazilian rosewood and as more and more mediocre cuts of the  Brazilian species started appearing on the market. Some of the best cuts are from Costa Rica. It is becoming very rare to come by and it is only harvested in private fincas. I expect the value to soar in the near future. It is considered the most beautiful tropical wood and for  a a very goodreason. The professional guitarist can benefit from the glorious sound that the wood produces when used in concert instruments  construction.
