Bro wish for this one you would have included more than just the one front photo. Best WOOD should be about the whole package and many of these guitars like my Washburn have killer wood in more than just the TOP!
Mine is a one piece Honduras Mahogany body under that stunning Quilt Drop top that looks so deep it gives you vertigo staring into it + the Brazilian board and quartersawn neck.



That Crosley and also the Warrior I know for a fact have some KILLER woods in more than just the tops just like my Washy does. It's what the others have under those tops that is a ? for me.

HOW DO I KEEP MISSING THESE!?

My Stinnett is stupidly gorgeous. I hate to be *that guy* but man, that guitar rules too hard to not win something. :laugh2:

Bro I don't know those guitars and would LOVE to see the rest of her!
I feel you as my MG 120 is simply stunning also but this is the first final poll I think that one has made. I have owned many many guitars over the years with figured tops but that quilt top on that particular guitar is just a jaw dropper with the 3D effect and the depth of the quilt. I have owned 15 or so of these Grover era MG guitars over the years and that one is the best looker of the lot + a killer player!

Have to go with Pete C's. Lovely guitars on the whole and he uses some of the thickest, juiciest tops out there.

BS dude it wasn't about just the MG!!! This category is best wood not best and prettiest TOP and should have been about the entire package. Instead it's a beauty contest on the figure of the tops alone.
Look I'm absolutely down for a best TOP poll but that was not what this was it was best WOOD.
That Warrior for example I know from being around those guitars has killer woods under that Zebra Wood top. I suspect the Crossly does also just like my MG does and maybe your guitar also.

Re: SDUG Ultimate Axe: Best Wood Poll!!!!!

bumpity bump

And this category is pretty much about the best top....
