Let's talk about WOOD: Sebenza

[wuyeah]

Hello guys,

I did a bit search and cannot find people discuss about wood types. On the site listed for Annual are:
-Bocote
-Elder Burl
-California Buckeye
-Curly maple
-Maple Burl
-Redwood Burl
-Snakewood

I have also seen:
-Desert Ironwood
-Ebony
-African Blackwood

My question is, is there one wood better than the other besides the look and pattern? Which wood is most desirable? If all comes down to personal beauty preference, which is your favorite? Sometimes I can't tell which wood is used on a Sebenza. Please share pictures of your wood inlay sebenza for other like me to understand the wood differences.

Thanks.

If you email CRK they can tell which woods are and are not stabilized, also some of these woods are more prestigious than others, however the price change is not very much from wood to wood... if any.

Ebony I believe is discontinued and sadly for its a bad ass wood, african blackwood is a bit lighter in color but also very bad ass.
