Hawaiian Milo (Pacific Rosewood) guitar sets are extremely rare. It’s very uncommon for a Milo tree to grow large enough to yield back and side sets big enough for a western guitar.

Milo is a member of the Mallow family or Malvaceae. There are eighteen species in the genus Thespesia but perhaps the best known and widely distributed one is the pantropic portia or milo (Thespesia populnea).
