I'm looking to get a custom guitar. I was wondering what type of wood would be good for the body, neck, and fretboard. I listen to Led Zepplin, Black Sabbath/Ozzy Osbourne, Metallica, Iron Maiden. I also play with a sound closer to Black Sabbath and Metallica. I was thinking: Body: Mahogany with Flame Maple top - Neck: Mahogany - Fretboard: Ebony.
While that is not a bad combination, how did you arrive at it? Are you familiar with the tonal differences between rosewood, ebony and maple fretboard. Are you familiar with the tonal differences between a mahogany neck and a maple neck. Are you aware of what tonal differences adding a maple cap to a mahogany body makes. Those are all things you need to review before you order a custom made guitar. Most likely the builder can assist you in reviewing the tonal differences. If all you are concerned with is the appearance, just use what you like.
