    SE Silver Sky Maple Quality Control Issues

    Just took delivery of a Silver Sky SE Maple in Overland Grey and I must say I am very disappointed in the QC. At this price point, minor imperfections are to be expected. I’m not expecting core-level QC and perfection. But what I’m seeing definitely, by far, falls short of what’s expected of...

    Normal wear for a maple SS?

    Purchased those polar blue silver sky back in December. Intermediate player with 1 hour a day average play. Not too worried about it, but is this kind of wear expected so soon? Are my sweaty hands a natural destroyer of fine finishes? https://ibb.co/0sTm7Gk https://ibb.co/2ghVy7k...

    Why SE Custom 24 use Maple but not Mahogany for neck?

    I'm wondering is there any reason that SE Custom 24 use Maple for neck wood, not Mahogany like the Core Custom 24? Because of COST or TONE? Does anybody know this secret?

    How is the scarf joint on your Silver sky? Is it very visible?

    Hi everyone! I just received a Silver sky and the scarf joint near the headstock was quite noticeable due to different shades of the two maple pieces. While I find scarf joint a great idea from a functional point of view, it did bother me a bit from the esthetic. How is it on your SS? If you...

    Natural Curly Maple Fetish

    My tendency to choose guitars with curly maple and a natural finish is looking like it is bordering on fetishism....lol. Needed a better acoustic upgrade for a couple of upcoming projects so I picked up that Washburn that is flipped backwards. Then I realized the back and sides are as good a...
