Hello,
A friend of mine has his own custom snare company, Greiner Kilmer Snares, and has offered to build me a custom drum.

One idea we tossed around was around was a Padauk and Maple hybrid. I also like the idea of Walnut/Maple.
Thoughts?
Also - Here is an example of my friend's handy work below:
