This bookmatch is long enough to yield a top and back for the same instrument, suggestion for a Small Standard top penciled in.

Mica, this is our choice.  Will the peghead and fretboard come from this same piece?  Thank you, Randy

The peghead veneer will, but it's thinner than we like for fingerboards. What we usually select for a Coco Bolo fingerboard looks similar to what is along the edge - fairly dark and straight.

Mica, thank you for the clarification, and I agree that straight would look best on the fretboard.  I trust your judgement in picking the piece.  Again, thank you, Randy.
