I can not decide on binding for this guitar. Here are pics of the binding I have on hand and the walnut together. Help me decide, or suggest another binding. I like bloodwood but I dont have any on hand. I also have curly maple, but I am not sure how I feel about it.
1)Curly Honduran mahogany

2)Wenge
