Mahogany Guitar Wood Back and Side Wood Rare Wood

This item was owned and stored by my father, who enjoyed making guitars as a hobby during his lifetime.

Purchased from LMI in the late 2000s to early 2010s.
Specifically, it is Sapele Mahogany.
I recall it being used as a substitute when Honduras Mahogany and similar woods became scarce.
It looks and sounds like Mahogany.

There is a slight warp on the back.
Please refer to image 13.
A portion of the edge of the back wood has been cut off.
Please refer to image 12.
This should not affect cutting out a D-size body.
There is no other damage such as cracks.
Masking tape, used to hold the wood pieces together during storage, is still attached.
Please remove it during shaping.

The workshop was set up in a renovated semi-basement room, where the temperature was relatively stable.
However, temperature was not controlled with specialized equipment.
Please consider purchasing with the understanding that this is amateur storage.

To ensure secure and careful handling, I will deliver it by bringing it directly to the shipping office.
I would appreciate your understanding that shipping and packaging costs are included in the price.

Also, please be aware that due to work commitments, it may take a few days from purchase to delivery processing at the shipping office.
If you have any preferred delivery dates or times, please let me know in advance.
