Tony, 
if you want better I can suggest Walnut (burl walnut or curly or flamed
is even better) if you like dark wood. Other nice dark woods would be
Ebony, Coco Bolo, Bocate, Bubinga, Wenge and (less expensive) Rosewood.

For lighter woods maybe curly Maple (or any maple), Mahogany may be 
light or darker, there is Tulipwood and Lacewood and Zebrawood (the
two latter are used in my two botique basses with good results).

If you want to be radical, there is the red Vermilion, purple (!)
Purpleheart, and Pink Ivorywood (need special tools for that one!)


Good luck,
Hallgeir
