Congratulations on this build, and once again, B.I.G. will unveil some new beginnings! It will be a treat to hear you debut it, and perhaps a dueling Urlacher duet with Dustin!

I am by no means an expert, but I thought Camatillo was a lot more purple. Perhaps the pictures aren't capturing the color correctly, but it looks a lot more like Brazilian Kingwood. It could be that I am wrong too, for they are closely related cousins. Both, from what I've read, are extremely rare, especially for back and sides. I have Camatillo bindings and bevels on one of my guitars, and it is indeed purple (it does darken a bit). Regardless of species, it will be a pleasure watching this come together.
