    Default Where to buy solid wood for Mandolin?

    Interested in spruce, mahogany, koa, cedar, cocobolo, cherry, etc.

    Myrtlewood, redwood, and rosewood would be cool too.
    It should be relatively cheap. I know places that sell it for high prices.

    Old Standard for red spruce. I get my figured maple from the Woodwell. You can shop around on the net for other lumber.
