What woods do you like or match well with bubinga?

Bubinga goes well with just about anything.   I think its handsome with Ziricote, Bocote, Zebrawood, Yellowheart, Gonçalo Alves, heck there are sooo many choices.

I've love the look of my Babinga and Ebony riser and quilted Babinga limbs...

Well if your Bubinga has a lot of character and figures a dark colored wood can match really well,for me it would be Gabon Ebony. If instead your Bubinga is pretty plain a nice striped Macassar can go with it.
I don't care for 2 figured woods side by side.

I like a darker wood to go with bubinga like wenge,ebony or zircote.

If not going with Macassar ebony I would use tiger wood or osage orange . God bless, Steve

Personally I think bubinga goes best with a synthetic or contrasting dymondwood type of product.

I backed a bubinga bow with bamboo. The light and dark colors contrast nicely.
