Here was the lineup from my solo show last night Collings D1T (amazing guitar, Emerald X20, Martin DC-18E, Collings I-35LCV.

Gary, I just checked Emerald's website and none of the veneers seemed to match yours. What is your veneer called?

They called it freak maple but it’s also known as crotch maple. I haven’t seen it on the 3D builder either

It's a shame they don't carry it any more. Your guitar looks spectacular, absolutely! Congratulations on a one of a kind finish.

I would assume it’s just a matter of availability.
