Crelicam Ebony, Diospyros crassiflora
StewMac
is extremely proud to be one of the only luthier suppliers in North
America offering Crelicam branded ebony. This is part of a massive
ethically sustainable project jointly founded by Taylor Guitars in 2017.
The Crelicam initiative considers every aspect of the ebony
trade, its impact on the forest ecosystems of Africa's Congo Basin, how
it effects local communities, improving harvesting practices and
planting ebony for the future.
And the wood we're offering from
this project is nothing short of spectacular. It's honestly some of the
best ebony sets we've ever seen.
Each set is unique, with
distinct visual aesthetics that are sure to produce exhibition grade
instruments. The colors range from tans & golds, to blacks, greens
and purples with a mix of variegation, light and dark lines, and even
some flame on our higher grade sets.
Tonally ebony is surprisingly complex and rich with a strong clear low end, a prominent mid-range and clear, articulate trebles.
All WOODSTAX items come with our standard 100%
guarantee. If you are unhappy with the wood once you get it simply
return it in its original, unworked condition for a full refund or
exchange.
