I'm wanting to get a snakewood/something short box and wanted to hear your favorites, combo and maker? I'm thinking snakewood/holly right now but would like to see what is recommended.
Thanks
Albert Paul snakewood over holly is my favorite.
Marlin Watkins snakewood over Holly or snakewood over persimmon
Here's my Watkins snakewood over Holly(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20190130/4741fcd31afa7c48709c6fb68f2d1a32.jpg)

Hard to beat the two already mentioned, but I love my matt van cise snakewood over black cherry.(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20190130/42dce8c4d44228115b4ad59532df33f4.jpg)

Absolutely one of my best sounding
Marlin Watkins Snakewood over Holly
Preacherman makes a very good snakewood over holly.
I have a Watkins in the same combo, even so I still can't bring myself to part with the Preacherman.
Watkins snakewood over butternut is my favorite though.

I think it's more in how it's tuned vs the wood, but it's hard to beat the beauty of a clear piece of holly
you might want to give Ernie Fetters a shout I know he has a couple for sale now if not spoken for and he makes an AWESOME box call!
