We have just taken delivery of a flamed maple tree from Wales.

The total weight of the tree is in excess of three tonnes, and will make around 15 basses.

It will be at least three years before the wood can be used but promises to make some really beautiful great sounding instruments.

To the right are some pictures of a tree we just taken delivery of.
