jar, what kind of wood is that, and who made those stocks? They're gorgeous!

It almost looks like a dark Tulipwood.

They are a set of Craig Spegel "Better than presentation grade" Tulip woods. To see just how little difference that really makes, the ones on the top in this picture are his normal "Presentation Grade" on my FM, the bottom are the pair pictured in the original picture.

I was real hesitant about them when I first saw them at http://www.pickagrip.com but the grain is so straight, the colors so vibrant that I just couldn't pass them up.
