TUART
Atherosperma Moschatum Ellis Guitars uses Tuart as tonewood tops on their custom acoustic stompbox. This timber is an exotic wood from Australia. TUART - FIGURED
TUART - PLAIN
Tuart grows on coastal limestone and can tolerate salt. In the 1830’s the timber was valued
by millrights, shipwrights and wheelrights as it is almost impossible to split or splinter.
The tuart forest within Australia’s South West is protected by the Tuart Forest National
Park and is the largest area of pure tuart remaining in the world. Tuart is primarily light in colour, the best
is highly figured.
TUART from Western Australia is used as guitar inlay material on Ellis
custom acoustic guitars, and as Stompbox tonewood on the Ellis custom acoustic stompbox
