Some wood possibilities : Australian Blackwood, Mango, Monkey Pod, Eucalyptus, Red Mountain Spanish Cedar and Quilted Sapele.

I am posting 2 sets of Australia Blackwood. I have several more and a flitch cut board that is big enough to get sides and backs from the same board. It is very curly much like set#3 below.

I also have Maple both curly & quilted.

A. Blackwood set #3    Great figure but already has a zipper back strip I am fairly sure that I could replace the backstrip or find another set with as much figure.

A Blackwood set #2  More of a flat sawn back

Curly Eucalyptus  found this board at woodcraft a couple of years ago and cut it into a guitar set. Would look good with bloodwood bindings

Monkey Pod #12  Some very nice curl in this set. The yellow wood in the center would be cut out as there is a knot that needs to be removed in the upper center

Curly Mango set #14. Would also look good with bloodwood bindings. Notice the black specs on the 2nd picture. They would not be in the back outline

Red Mountain Spanish Cedar   Look at 'GL-00 for Mick' in finished guitars

Quilted Sapele    Very nice looking but darker wood
