Can anyone post any pictures of 110's with Fiji Orangewood or Koa flamewood?

I'm already itching for another Custom Shoppe 110 and I'm having a tough time choose which wood scale.
A decent close-up shot of either wood scale would be great.

It will be paired with nickle-silver bolsters.

Thanks,
Allen.

imho = brass fiji / nickel = Koa
but that is jest me... i like contrast

Nah...let 'em put any three initials on it they want.
now that was a good one lol

as for not buying it again it is nice enough but i dont really like the color of the wood and i paid 120 for it so for that i could have had the buffalo that i want from the custom shop
damn i wish they would take paypal it would simplify things a lot for me

Ok on the Buff instead of Wood. I too would get the Buff first. I'll have to wait a bit though...cash flow...or lack of cash flow.
For me, good thing they don't take PayPal. I'd be maxed out.

As for the reply I sent to the post asking "should I send a note?" for the engraving, yeah, I had to read that a few times to be certain I understood the question right. Then I replied...couldn't resist.
I did hold back on asking what kine steel is used on a Solo...so I did demonstrate "some" restraint.

I'm an ass, I know...but it's all in good fun. ;)

Here's one with the KOA Flamewood. :thumbup:
 
Thanks for the pictures.
Buckman, I have to agree with you, they Fiji is maybe too orange.
But the Koa flamewood looks beautiful!
I think the Koa will be my next 110.

If anyone else has any other pictures please post them.
Walnut or oak pictures welcome too.

Thanks again,
allen.
