I wonder which woods can be used to construct a one piece neck ?
Obviously Maple and Roasted Maple, but I haven't seen any with Flame Maple.
I've also seen Rosewood, Ebony and Pau Ferro.
Any more ?
 
In any given category of necks in the Showcase, look at Vintage or Vintage Modern, and then do a filter on any given lumber type (or if you feel like scrolling through a lot of results, "All exotics"), and you'll find out what already exists in the shop.  A quick look at just Strat necks gave me flame maple (roasted and un-treated), rosewood, bocote, padauk, canary, goncalo alves, and pau ferro under Strat necks.  There might also be Brazilian ebony but the filter doesn't have that as a choice; but I'm pretty certain I've seen them in the past.  Some of the necks I saw in my results at may be two-piece parts, but many are quite evidently one-piece jobs.
 
Chance favors the prepared. I was rowing through the RSS feed one night and saw it, so I was able to buy it before it got any real exposure.

That feed is dangerous if you've got a credit card with some room on it. A number of their more spectacular necks show up there that barely make it into the showcase because they get snatched up so fast.
 
I have one all bubinga, one all wenge, and one all rosewood..... And maple, of course....
