What do you think of Osage orange relative to pernambuco?

I've actually never played or heard (to my knowledge) a Pernambuco guitar...

Thanks, Bob...will do!
The more I look at the photos, the more I like the overall look of the O.O...and the trim we chose for the backstrip...we'll see how things look on the rest of the guitar!
