Getting closer, Tim. Now you've got three of four.
And to be fair:
Yes,

I should send you a shirt anyway for a McJam freebie!

When in doubt with Steve, I go with ABW. Any chance 3 is also ABW?

Since Tim was "closer"... how about Indonesian RW for #3?

Sorry Dan. Indo is not right either. It’s a tough wood to get...at least for the last 26 years or so.

Rye hits the mark with Brazilian Rosewood! A nice dark piece.

We could be picayunish and say, he only guessed one of the species!
But since this was the one in question, and all others have been identified...ok.

So we took another pic, showing another bridge made of the mystery species for comparison:

Attachment 6615

Even though it has been correctly named, I submit the photo anyway to show some of the remarkable variety within this species.
Perhaps what has been throwing the eye is the coat of wax atop all these bridges? Thanks for playing along,
Steve
