Is it as light or lighter than spruce or white cedar?

: Hi Pete

: The only thing about basswood that some folks don't care for is that it has
: little visible grain pattern, and thus some think it doesn't end up
: looking really like wood. Guess that's a personal preference thing.
: Otherwise it is very light weight and is great to work with. Very flexible
: and not at all brittle.
