yeah lex,mine is not as great as THAT...i would love to find a piece like that for my v ...that is quite an uncommon piece.

Not that uncommon at all from the place where the builder of that guitar, Northwood Guitars, gets his figured Maple. I'm not sure what they supplier of the wood is called now, and I have a feeling they only sell to businesses. I bought a piece of flamed for myself, it was enough to give me a thinner drop-top, and an arch-top blank, that I will probably re-saw into drop tops, for $125CDN. The quilted stuff is around $200 as I remember, for a similarly sized piece. You should really see the quality of the quilt Northwood uses on their guitars, particularly custom electrics. I don't think the pics on the website do the figuring justice at all. Personally, Northwood uses some of the most outstanding figured woods I've ever seen.
