Our founder, Richard Paul, grew up on St. Mary’s First Nation in New Brunswick, Canada.  He spent much of his early life in the woods, hunting, fishing, trapping and working with wood.  Being a musician, and eventually a machinist, Richard took his love for wood and created this company called Specialty Maples.

Today Specialty Maples supplies some of the world’s biggest guitar brands with top quality birdseye, curly, and figured maple components.  As well, ask us about our thermally modified tonewoods and our rich-sounding red spruce components.

If you have any questions about our products or how Specialty Maples may be a good fit for your supply chain, you can contact Richard Paul directly.
