Exotic Ebony is really appreciated for making musical instruments, both for the beautiful figures that it has as for the unbeatable acoustic properties.

This wood shares qualities with African Ebony, but with a black and white contrast that make amazing patterns. Regarding the sound, it has bright and dynamical tones. It’s also a good ally against scratches and stains.
