Acoustic Guitar Backs and Sides

Luthiers Mercantile International is known throughout the world for our broad range of back and side woods. We carry species from every continent for every type of guitar or ukulele. Makers of handmade guitars rely on LMI for tonewood that is expertly dried, sanded and stored. Select the set that is right for your next custom-made guitar by using the filters and then perusing the galleries. Each set is displayed and sold individually, so you can be the judge. All of our woods are responsibly harvested and imported (which is why you will not find Brazilian Rosewood back and sides or other endangered or illegal species). We specialize in staples like Indian Rosewood, Honduran Mahogany, and Bigleaf Maple but always have dozens of other enticing exotic species on hand. When we can, we enjoy presenting woods with spider-web figure, flamed figure, bees wing figure and more. Please feel free to contact us if you would like to learn more about some of the rare luthier woods we sell.
