Yew Ukulele Back and Sides (DW15)

Pacific Yew wood is a great wood for Luthiers.  We recover our yew on the Southern Oregon Coast where the variety of soil types can add color to your next ukulele project.  Most of Yew is used for long bow veneers, but we have some that can be used for acoustics.  The wood has unmatched qualities, easy workability, and finish. We personally recover most of our trees from logging site where the trees were being sent to chip mills.  The areas that the trees are removed from are replanted with new trees making this a very eco-friendly and sustainable wood.  The cool wet air of the Oregon Coast makes the perfect environment for slow consistent growth of high quality wood.  

We air dry our Yew wood for at least three years.  

Photos are front and side wet to show what your finished piece will look like and dry to show what they will look like when they arrive.
