Great material, slight color variation

The structural quality is top-notch, Grade A indeed. There was a very slight variation in the black tone compared to the photos, but nothing that affects the acoustic performance. Still a great buy.

Perfect for Zhonghu conversion

I used this material to upgrade my Zhonghu. The resonance improved significantly after installation. The wood feels solid and premium. Shipping was fast and packaging protected the wood well.

Exceptional density and grain

This ebony material is exactly what I needed for my custom Erhu project. The wood is incredibly dense, sinks immediately in water, and has a beautiful straight grain. Perfect for high-end instrument making.

Good value for money

Solid piece of wood with no cracks or imperfections. It took some effort to shape due to the hardness, which is actually a good sign of quality. Would purchase again for future projects.

Professional grade ebony

As a professional instrument repairer, I am very picky about materials. This ebony meets all my standards for hardness and oil content. It polishes to a mirror finish beautifully.

True one-piece quality

Rare to find genuine one-piece sticks at this price point. The stability of the wood is impressive, and it machines very smoothly without splintering. Highly recommended for luthiers.

5 FAQ

Q: What is the approximate moisture content of the wood?

A: The wood is kiln-dried and stabilized to a moisture content of approximately 8-10%, making it ready for crafting in most climates without significant warping risk.

Q: How is the item packaged to prevent damage during shipping?

A: We use multi-layer foam padding and a reinforced cardboard box to ensure the wood remains secure and free from impact damage during transit.

Q: Can this be used for making a Gaohu as well?

A: Absolutely. While often used for Erhu and Zhonghu, the density and acoustic properties of this ebony make it an excellent choice for Gaohu construction too.

Q: Does this material come with a certificate of authenticity?

A: Yes, each piece of Grade A material comes with a certificate verifying the wood type, origin, and density classification.

Q: Is this wood pre-shaped or just a raw blank?

A: This is sold as a raw material blank. It is not pre-shaped, allowing luthiers to customize the dimensions according to their specific instrument design requirements.
