This set is made from flame maple and is tapered.  This set is best used on a guitar with a stoptail or tune-a-matic bridge.  The grain is cut with a vertical orient so the figure can show on the side of the ring and match your guitar top as much as possible.
Flame maple is the single most interesting feature of many guitars.  It's no surprise that players want the look to continue in their pickup rings!  This set is tapered and is well suited for stoptail or tune-a-matic equiped bridges.
