<p>Hi David-- from what I hear ( and I dont know first hand ) spalted maple, although it has a gr8 look is not good for acoustic guitars, but then again thats what I hear.</p>
<p>I have 4 pieces of spalted maple that I will use for a solid body guitar, but I will be plaining it to 1/4 inch for a top plate.</p>
<p>Let us know what you r findings are for an acoustic guitar -- ok??</p>
<p>Peace, Donald </p>

Its a shame, but it doesn't have much of a tap tone to it. It may end up as banjo resonator veneers, or sold to someone who does solid body guitars.
