The custom build in my signature has a bear claw top. It's a wonderful guitar...

It actually according to many woodworkers is caused by the same thing as flame figure as previously stated compression.
These figures are not caused by compression. The most credible explanation is genetic.
Bearclaw is the most common in Sitka, and least common in red spruce.
