I think 'Tufnol' (a bit like SRBP, but resin bonded cloth instead) could be a suitable material to use, and useful substitute to exotic African hardwoods.

You might want to consider this too...at only 3 grms....

or...I have a piece of Teflon 1.6mm thick...if you want to manufacture your own....I made one for my Goldring Eroica to very good effect...

It is impossible for anything digital to sound analogue, because it isn't analogue!
Make mine out of PTFE it is light , and inert , works very well,dont use carbon fibre ,fibre's are nasty hard to drill , need to get them cut on a water jet , i have a couple of large blocks and cannot get them cut any where LOL
Barry i have used it for a while and it sound great and light too, you can buy them ready made off eveil bay , high heat resistance
high resistance to chemical agents and solvents
high anti adhesiveness
high dielectric properties
low friction coefficient
non-toxicity.
PTFE is generally considered a thermoplastic polymer; at 327°C it maintains a very high viscosity, thus requiring particular transformation techniques for manufacturing of finished and semi-finished goods.
PTFE can be used at any temperature from -200°C to +260°C peter
Delrin would IMO be a better material to use.

it heaver than PTFE and hard to drill , and twice the price , i have some it you want a piece 2mm thick
