Figured maple basses!
 
I'm going to be making another bass with my friend shortly, I was wondering if anyone could post pictures of their figured maple basses, specifically Birdseye or Burl!

Also if you have any pictures of a bass using canary as a facing, If the wood joint I'm going too doesn't have good figures I might try using Canary
