Every Toredo Float Log  Guitar set is different. In 2000, Bob Benedetto came to me at the World Guitar Congress in Baltimore. He asked if I could supply him with some toredo eaten Sitka Planks for archtop. I said yes and sent him 2 sets of plank cut boards. He built Toredo 1 and Toredo 2 and sold them for a very hefty price. Good for you Bob! These are bookset cut acoustic soundboards that will yield a more symmetrical pattern because they are cut closer to the instrument profile. We are really not selling the wood at this price, but rather all the time and work that it takes to find a set that is workable. All the 23` long saws that need to get sharpened after just a couple cuts, because of the calcium shell deposit that lines the hole made by the toredo mollusk dulls the saw so quickly.

There are varying amounts of holiness from one set to another. Some with just a couple holes to 40% holiness and everything in between.

Let us know either by email or in order notes at checkout, how holy and where the holes should be, whether upper bout or lower bout etc.. and we will do our best to find a set that meets your desire.

Dreadnaught –  Most 2 pc bookset boards are cut  8.5+” x 23 but may or not pattern all of the width and length. These tops will pattern [per half]  Lower bout 8”,  waist 5.25 , upper bout 5.75” x 19.75-20” inches long which is the range of the 4 dreadnought gtr patterns we have to go by. If your measurements crowd these dimensions, it would be wise to let us know what your doing in the comments box of the order, during checkout; or best,  contact us before ordering.
