Thanks Mica.

Chip evaluated the newest laminate nominations:

   Here's his favored line for the top:

 Of course, it's hard to see, but there is quilted figure on every square inch of this top. Not much contrast, but deep, jewel-like color and intense figure.   And for the back:

 He was able to scoot the template a little into the more quilted end of the board, he thought you'ld like that to tie into the top laminate more.

Mica,
 
I love both positionings. We are good to go!! Will it be possible to get the front and back of the peghead from either of these pieces?  
 
Thanks,

Stunning wood.  Magnificent.

Mike,
I love the quilted coco bolo for your top. Incredibly stunning!

Thanks T and Mike. I'm very excited about this project. I can't wait to see how it all comes together.

A cool photo I wanted to add for reference.

Is that quilted cocobolo on the headstock?!?
 
Bradley

Yes, it is; the top & back too, not just the peghead.
 
Valentino

That's further than my pocketbook would allow.
 
It will be beautiful, I'm sure.
