Title: Favorite wood combinations?
Post by: Skipmaster1 on February 10, 2011, 01:34:00 AM
I already used the "search" feature and drooled over plenty of pics. I figured nobody would really need and excuse to show off their favorite wood combos. The real reason is I just got on the Shrew list again and my mind is reeling with all the possibilities!

My favorite combo is a dark flair with a lighter riser. Ziricote or Ebony flair with Bocote riser would be my choice. Or something like this...
