Nagaed

"Nagaed" (Deagan spelled backwards), was used to identify Honduras rosewood meticulously selected for uniform resin density, quarter-sawed grain, color, and overall perfection for tone bars of superior grade models of xylophones, marimba-xylophones, marimbas, and marimbaphones.

or

Klyposerus

Klyposerus was a dark red-brown cream-streaked rosewood identified as Caribbean cocobolo wood, used only for Deagan professional xylophones for its bright sound and extreme durability.
