We had the good fortune at PRT to recently acquire a 900-1,000 year-old redwood tree that was salvaged from a creek as part of a salmon restoration project in Northern California. Redwood is sought after by luthiers for its rare beauty, rich sonic character and unique grain patterns and coloration. These drop tops in our vault have a very intense figure. They can have a quilted look and also a flamed look, depending on how the light hits them.

Being a luthier-hobbyist myself, I recently built a Flamenco guitar using sonically graded Sitka spruce from Pacific Rim Tonewoods. The quality of their wood helped me make a clear step forward as an instrument builder, and I'm looking forward to collaborating with this amazing company for many years to come.
