Instrument-quality vertical grain wood transmits sound like no other medium.  So it's no wonder that world-class players have favored the unique qualities of single-ply Cypress blades for decades.  The touch and feedback you receive from a single-ply blade is simply unlike any other type of blade, period.  The ultra-soft feel makes this a looper's dream come true.  Hitters have used single-ply blades since the 1960's to leave welts on their unwary opponents.  You will like my Single-ply Cypress.

Note: This blade is available with any of my handles and shapes, not just the shakehand version you see pictured above.
