Strip the anodized coating off half of it and then run what you want. Otherwise I've had good luck with black locust (Yingling), spectraply (Sinclair), tulipwood (Lyman) and yellowheart (fowler).

Dymondwood, yellowheart, ebony, and last but not least TULIPWOOD.

Matter of fact, but I have yet to find a surface that TULIPWOOD will not run on.  It runs everything.

Have ya tried Acrylic?  IF you haven't, I highly suggest it.  It bites the alum really nice, and makes a nice crisp sound,  where woods have a tendency to screech.  It also plays wet on alum where woods donot.  It also runs very well on copper and glass.

Who would you recommend for a Acrylic? I would like to try one.
