I don't have any pics to show - you can find some if you do a search...
Burled, or "crotch", cocobolo is some of the most beautiful wood imaginable, and not often seen. I don't care for the feel of a wrapless playing cue myself but, were I to have one built for it's beauty - and they do offer an expanded "palette", this is one of the woods that would be on the top of my list of choices.
Have a ball with your project!!

I believe it's "big leaf maple burl".
