Common denominator, butternut box.

Has to be!  Favs I have played are ipe, mora, and mac all over butternut.
Mac over butternut if I had to pick one.

It looks like bloodwood and Ipe are overwhelmingly the primary lid in the combos.

Hop Hornbeam over Blue Mahoe.

She's a nasty gal. Can totally scream, and can get softer than heck. All turkey, all the way.

Bought it at Nationals 2019 and wish I would not have left the other one laying on the table. !
