I have another Mayones Duvell on the way and it's got a Buckeye Burl top. So, naturally I'm obsessed with buckeye burl now :hbang: Lemme see what you got! Doesn't have to be yours. Just share whatever awesome buckeye tops you can find. My new one on the way is the 6-string on the left. But there's a 7 on the right for y'all to check out:

I really wish I could try out a nice Carvin/Kiesel. Their options and whatnot look very tempting. But I dunno...

Anyway, that's a good one! The top is one piece?

Yeah the last two I've received have been pretty great, this one in particular arrived flawless and plays/sounds great, so I'm pretty darn happy with it! :D I thought the top was a one-piece when I first saw the pics since there wasn't symmetry but if you look up close you can in fact see a seam where the two pieces are joined. All I know is it looks killer so I lucked out that it was an in-stock build and not one I had to roll the dice on since Buckeye Burl tops can be all over the place, aesthetically-speaking. :lol:

My Duvell MBC Buckeye Run 6 string, I was lucky enough to find this before they were put up and took this top. It has flame all over it and it doesn't contain any of the green/grey that I usually dislike in Buckeye, and as usual Mayones kills it.

Thats a very understated top Jonathan I love it!

Usually Burl's are crazy but thats a little more classy.

That's from Omega? That's where I got mine :) The mahogany back on yours is awesome!

Here's a similar lockup of mine (should be here Monday):

Yeah David really hooked it up on these, and his CS is awesome. Always around to answer questions when you need it, definitely ordering from him again. Yours looks awesome, I couldn't resist grabbing the flamed buckeye when I saw it though haha.

Yeah, Omega (so far) were great to deal with. I contacted GuitarGuitar in the UK about their MBC Buckeye Burls, but they never bothered to respond. Omega got back to me on a weekend haha.

You have a lager/closer shot of the top so we can all see the flame?
