I'm in the process of spec'ing out a custom bass and I have decided to go with a quilted maple top/matching headstock. I'd be really grateful if TBs with quilted tops could post them here so that I can get a good idea of what I am looking for.

That''ll be the easy part! I can then give my builder the hard part of actually finding the perfect piece of wood!

Many thanks in advance!

Here are a few maple quilts I've found on the web to get going with: (Hope I don't get barred for my first picture, but it is a sweet top!)
