Thinking Mahogany for the back and sides, but there isn't any binding to separate the top which I was contemplating Goldenrod or Carmine Gypsy....might just have to do the whole thing in Cherry Flamenco?

nice, thats bizaar, I did mine back sides in mahogany, and did a carmine/golden rod burst on top !Quote from Gavin1393 on June 7, 2013, 11:53

cherry all over would look great. You will see the headstock is quite a bit longer and narrower than the standard PRS headstock, but its got heaps of height to play with designs

I haven't pulled the neck out yet to have a look at the headstock....I'm a little nervous about what I might discover.....after having given special instructions on my order form!

Oh wow, you hit the jackpot with that top Gav!
Yeah! I have to do it justice! Not sure what though!
Gavmeister
I'd think something natural to highlight and accentuate the wood - that spalty top is to die for...
