Looks like a very well done home made bow...maybe a Bingham kit bow.

Somebody said it's a Stemmler but I think it's a Bingham Project bow.

Hey Bow Doc, do you think so? It looks like the same woods and lay-up was put in to the riser. One is in L.A. the other is in LA. I do tip my hat to your superior knowledge in such matters tho. just curious on my end.
p.s I just noticed that it has a serial # also.
