Where's the spruce ?

Where's the spruce ?

Does anyone know where I can buy some 1/4" spruce for a violin soundpost, in the UK? I've only been able to find suppliers in the USA

That looks a good site generally, I might get down there and see how they might supply my instrument-building projects.

Excellent - I'd be interested what you think of the quality/service etc. They're nothing to do with me, but it's nice to know what's out there and how reliable people are.

They offer a very good service. You order by phone - it's answered immediately, social pleasantries with the person taking the order and the package arrived three days later as promised. Couldn't be bettered.

Brilliant. And thanks for taking the time to come back to this and let us know how you got on. I've thought about ordering stuff from these people once or twice, and your experience has given me more confidence.
