I have a chunk of Wenge that is kid of a experiment in finishing (its a pain) so I figure I'll add a accent to it and I have a few choices. Take a look and tell me what you think good and bad.
#1) Singe bamboo. (http://i605.photobucket.com/albums/tt131/tfolts/P1010146.jpg)
#2)Single Bubinga (http://i605.photobucket.com/albums/tt131/tfolts/P1010147.jpg)
#3)Boo over micarta (http://i605.photobucket.com/albums/tt131/tfolts/P1010149.jpg)
#4)Boo over Bubinga (http://i605.photobucket.com/albums/tt131/tfolts/P1010141.jpg)
#5)Boo, micarta,bubinga (http://i605.photobucket.com/albums/tt131/tfolts/P1010151.jpg)

Tenbrook..........

I really like the rustic bow on the bottom in your pic. Do you have a pic of it strung?
