wood combos w/bubinga

[Jim Rocole]

i have a pile of bubinga riser material. I am looking for another wood to pair with in the riser. Any suggestions or pics?

[Todd Cook]

Wenge, walnut, anything dark.

That would be a very long list!  Most woods would probably pair well with bubinga.  Figured maple, bubinga, laurel, myrtle, I'd say really anything that contrasts it.  The only combo that might look weird is another red wood for the lam, like moradillo or coco, but heck, those would probably look good too!  Hahah.  

I'd look around google for 'bubinga riser bow' in the image search and just see what you like best!

I would go with as much contrast as possible.  So...I think it would be good with anything dark like wenge or anything light like maple and light myrtle.

Zebra wood is good.

THANKS FOR THE SUGGESTIONS. I AM LEANING TOWARD A LIGHTER WOOD BUT OF COURSE ALL I HAVE IS DARK RISER WOOD. TIME FOR  A TRIP TO WOODCRAFTERS

One of my favorite combos is Bubinga mixed with Zebrano

Two nice bows for sure, but particularly like the Zebrano with the Bubinga.

[Jim Rocole]

those look great. I have enough bubinga I will probably do both.

Shedua is my favorite with bubinga or ebony .

[Dmaxshawn]

I'm a fan of shedua also.
