These AA-grade Santos Rosewood FSC 100% backs come from responsibly managed Bolivian forests, ensuring legal harvesting, biodiversity protection, labor rights and full traceability from origin to the luthier’s workshop.
Botanically Machaerium scleroxylon and widely recognised as Pau Ferro, this tonewood offers high density and excellent dimensional stability, ideal for an acoustic guitar back that must deliver clarity, control and consistent structural behaviour.
AA-grade sets show balanced colour variation, good visual uniformity and characteristic figured grain. Only minimal or negligible marks are admissible, making it suitable for professional-level instruments.
