Marco, the number provided is still in operation. I spoke with him yesterday.
Sometimes the phone is turned off, just leave him a message. He usually responds within 1 or 2 days.
Try the alternate contact method, by e-mailing Mario at: mariopunchard@yahoo.com

If you still fail to connect with Mario, I'll let him know that you've been trying to contact him.

Peace and Blessings..........

Good question. I think down there they have Honduran Rosewood ready available which I think is another hardwood used for drum making.

[bongosnotbombs]

Isla is also going to be using ziracote wood.

[pcastag]

Wow, I just looked at some Ziracote pics, beautiful wood!
