It is a popular choice for luthiers seeking a distinctive alternative to traditional tonewoods.

Note:
As a natural tonewood, variations in colour, grain, and figure are to be expected. Cherry naturally darkens and develops a richer tone with age and exposure to light. Minor surface checks or natural features may occasionally be present. Photographs are representative of typical appearance.
