Originally posted by Ron Bushong: Tulipwood gets my vote too. I've got a Tulipwood PAX with black accents... absolutely stunning. I'm partial to it though. I like the grain and colors of Tulipwood so much that I overlayed the pegheads (front & back) and neck heels on two of my banjos with it a few years ago (thanks to Jim Jones of Firefly Bows for grinding the Tulipwood stock down to the thickness that I needed).Good luck... There's lots to choose from. I'm sure you will find a combo that works for you.RB
