Hi everyone!
I'm a rookie guitar builder and I would be happy for your help. Got these large slabs of wood in a yard sale, the owners didn't know what wood it is. As they recalled it came from a disassembled bed, which made me assume its pine or beech.
Edit:
Hi everyone! Thanks for all your responses.i took your advice, cut one of the slabs and roughly sanded it. Looks very different, it's now quite obvious to me that it was covered in some sort of lacquer or stain. So - here are new shots, maybe those would give a more informative view. In the picture with 2 pieces on the table the right is before sanding and left is after
What do you think?
