    Wow, that top tama is pretty messed up, nice work haha

    (insert pretentious comment about companies that produce natty striped tamas without any understanding of woodworking here)

    15? Didn't realize Colin has been playing that long, thought it was closer to 10-11 years. Where did he score that first dama?

    Now that I think about it, pretty sure we got it in '05 which would make it 12 years old. One of the guys at Willi's ski shop got ahold of it from Japan.

    Stripes were put on using a sharpie (on a lathe) then I beeswaxed the tama.

    so far the birch ken is holding up ok! chipped that maple ken though. and yes, raw ash tamas can be played until they are dust. so much fun.

    With the natty keyaki the main difference is seeing the grain darken and pop out.
