Honduran Mahogany Body Blank
This is the original! Honduran Mahogany has been the gold standard of electric guitar woods for nearly 70 years due to its ideal combination of phenomenal tone, weight, and rich, beautiful appearance.
What sets Honduran Mahogany apart from other electric body woods is its warm midrange-focused sound with complex overtones. It's been the main wood for Gibson solid body guitars since the Golden Era.
These are top quality AAA blanks, perfect for a translucent or opaque finish. Each is matched, joined, and sanded—ready for you to start your build.

About Honduran Mahogany (Swietenia macrophylla)
Building with Honduran Mahogany is a joy. The routed edges cut crisp and clean. It sands to a fine powder, and it accepts stain and finish evenly and consistently. Honduran Mahogany is an open pore wood, so filler should be used before finishing.
