? David? ??I beleive you are correct. As JD says the grain can be squirrly. The light maple?is far less problematic ? Dale I see from your photos that those are Ronsen hammers with Sapele moldings. I've been using the lightweight maple almost exclusively for awhile now. I wonder if the Sapele isn't a bit more prone to coming apart like that.
