Hey Gents
Just received my second MOAB in the mail (used). Does any one know what kind of limb wood this is, it's pretty, but I don't know what it is.

Looks like stained quilted maple to me.

There's a pic of some gray quilted maple in this thread that looks very similar...

Look for Jacobsladder's firefly on the first page.

I agree with sleepyhollow....Tamo ash

Quilted maple would been my first answer, but the pattern there... Sleepy might be on to something there -  a dark stained Tamo???

Looks like it might be Pommele Sapele. It may have been treated with Aqua Fortis to make such dark contrast.
