I like colaBRO—that’s clever. J.Long suggested “Cocolabo”, which is also good. Any more?
CocoBROlo?

Ugh, you had to suggest that… though some would say “that goes without saying”.

Default Rosette work

We are thinking an Amboyna burl ring with two abalone rings would look nice.



Turning these pieces into a wood ring

Thanks Kevin
There will be a small triangle that mimics the peghead intersecting the ring on the center seam.

Smile NICE!!!

That burl is BOSS!

The ab rings will set it off beautifully.

Got more of the burl stashed? Pieces big enough for a book matched headstock veneer, perhaps?

Your wood stash is so deep…

Gotta remember the color themes. Not sure the redish burl would go well with the brown and gold tones. But it's a consideration.

Probably the final version
There are two rings of bloodwood, one just inside the rosette and
And one lining the soundhole.
