Interesting. I never thought much about wood sources or origins or even wood types beyond oak, pine & maple before getting into guitar building (and aquisition). My previous experience was what I called "cabin quality furniture" and "earthquake proof house renos" :D.

So... yer saying that Korina's a valid name, but it does not come from Hawaii? Where does it come from? (I want to say Africa., I suppose I should Google that, but discussion is good, too.)
