Does anyone have a Koa or Blackwood 12er? How well does it handle the extra energy? I've always sided with Leo Kottke on preferring mahogany 12s but am wondering how a Koa or Blackwood would be.

I've not heard of a Blackwood 12'er, sure would like to see/hear one.

The very first time I asked unclrob about a blackwood, he had a D-03-12BW in stock. It sold soon after that.
