Looks
Granadillo is primarily used for furniture and instruments because of its exotic "marbled" grain. Considered more attractive than Mayan Cherry.

Hardness:
The Janka scale measures the wood's dent resistance (in lbf).

Mayan Cherry= 2805
Granadillo= 2450
Poisonwood= 2250
Tigerwood= 2170
Ziricote= 1970
Hickory= 1820
Ash= 1320

Granadillo's incredible hardness allows you to lay hard checks without a dent.

Checking Strength:
Checking strength determines the flexibility and solid feel of your shaft. A high checking strength creates powerful checks and a solid feel while a lower checking strength creates more flexibility and impact absorption.

Granadillo lays very hard checks, but will have a bit less flex than my other shafts. However, all my shafts are more flexible than other metal shafts.

Granadillo= 3200
Mayan Cherry= 2745
Tigerwood= 2300
Ash= 1740
Hickory= 1730
Ziricote= 1585
Poisonwood= 1350

Warmth:
Wood won't get cold as fast as metal. Warm hands guaranteed.

Construction:
-cut to NCAA specs
-cut parallel to grain for ultimate durability.
-sanded smooth up to 400 grit ultra fine sandpaper
- 3 coats of spar urethane brings out the wood's natural grain and protect it from sun, rain, and temperature change.
