Sinker Mahogany
Old growth ‘Sinker’ Mahogany from Belize is amazing wood with a great story. Cut from logs that were fell long ago, these premium logs were lost to the elements and rugged terrain in the rain forest for well over a century. The only way to get logs out from deep in the jungle to the shipping vessels was to float them down rivers. Occasionally an old growth log got stuck or sank and got buried in the mud. Some became a time capsule of tone wood, did not rot, and aged for over a century before they could be rescued by modern means. This wood has the old bone sound, serious vintage wood in a new build.
