Kalimna that's the decision I came to when planning a native timber build, so I decided to allow myself to use a Euro Spruce soundboard, but all other materials should be locally sourced. I am documenting this build elsewhere on the Official Luthiers Forum, but if people would like I can start...

Not sure about bog oak being corrosive, I know it has been used by Brook guitars and is available to buy as fretboard blanks @ timberline (or so i have been told I sourced mine as a blank elsewhere) so fingers crossed it will be ok, i'm going to give it a try and see what happens. I guess using...

I'm currently starting an acoustic build using native timbers as much as possible, though have given in and gone for Euro spruce for the soundboard. I've chosen cherry for back and sides, sycamore for neck, and bog oak for fretboard and bridge. Would be very interested if you manage to find...

I have used both these in the past http://www.jbboats.co.uk/ looks like there currently £65 and http://www.finewayleisure.co.uk/html/2_6_seat.html cost varies depending upon length of trip. Hope this helps

Where about's in Norfolk are you going to be / do you have any particular interests? I would consider a day trip (or half day) on the broads, you can rent a day boat for about £60 per day personally I cant think of a much better way to spend a day (if the suns shining).
