Is this the one you played for me ?

No, I played you a Walnut. But it's the same deminsions.

That's right the walnut . They all sound awesome. The cedar slate and the walnut ceramic sound awesome as well

Very nice! I just got my hands on some 120 year old chestnut from a barn in southern Ohio.

Very nice looking and the sound shows the strength of the wood.
Thanks

Sounds pretty good from what I can tell with the echo. I prefer a slate over slate or one with a wood soundboard.
