I'm for flame even though the bird's eye is more expensive..maybe it's because my first axe was flamed?!..
Well, my Roasted, Black Sugared Reflex has both!
The top of the neck is flamed and the bottom has birds eye.
You mean the body? I thought it depends on the wood pattern when they're matching the tops..
I thought you were referring to the necks on a guitar!
Never seen "birds eye" on the body of a guitar, that I can think of.
