Features
of Woods Used in Carson Crickmore Guitars
Blackwood
(Acacia Melanoxylon)
Grown
predominantly in southern Victoria and Tasmania.
This
is Australia's premier instrument building wood, growing
straight grained and with figure, ie fiddleback. Blackwood
is stable when prepared properly, it bends very well and
consistently produces a strong, fundamental tone. It is
very appealing visually and there is a good supply available
within Australia.
80% of Carson Crickmore Guitars are produced in blackwood
