Was moving my sets of back and sides and decided to take a photo. Thought it would be interesting to see if anyone could guess them all.

Maple, Myrtle, Hon.Mahogany, Sapelle, "barnboard", Nogal, Sycamore, African Blackwood, Cocobolo, Hon.Rosewood, Wenge, Lacewood, Koa, Koa. I'm likely off by a mile, but there aren't any Curly, Larry or Moe's in that line-up!

Nice lineup! Some of them are tricky... here are my guesses:

Osage orange
T'zalam
Honduran mahogany
Khaya/African mahogany
Myrtle
Madagascar rosewood
Bubinga
Claro walnut
Cocobolo
Padauk
African blackwood
Ovangkol
Pau ferro
Another pau ferro?

EDIT: Dang it, now that I've read the thread to see what everyone else's guesses were, and the answers... I failed pretty hard.
