Tim got the right one..
The core is Koa. The core actually has a mild flame figure to it as well. It's a beautiful core wood. I've never managed to capture a good picture of it though. It's 4A quilt top, 3A quilt back, Koa core, with walnut laminates.
Ken seemed a little startled when I told him I wanted a Koa core and seemed a little resistant to it. He wanted to know where I heard he would do Koa as a core wood. I said I didn't, it's just what I want. At that point he said it wouldn't be a problem.
