The guitar is an interesting play for sure. I like the feel of the neck. It is a Tele with an ash body. The guitar is a combination of a number of things I have never owned in a guitar before so it is hard for me to tell exactly how much the neck is affecting the tone of it. I have a friend that told me if I ever sell it I have to call him first. I showed up at one of his gigs with it one night and let him play it for a bit with his band. He didn't want to give it back.
I have rosewood that is as dark as that.
Looks like rosewood to me.
Now THAT looks pretty! Honestly, a little Variegation would be nicer, even with yours. A little more variation and contrast in colors. The beautiful colors of Rosewood are a big part of the attraction to Rosewood for me.I have rosewood that is as dark as that.
I would probably keep it, whatever the wood actually is.
I like that darker neck better.
That Is Awfully Gracious of Him To Do. Very Cool Indeed!
Yep. Unexpected!
I don't.
I thought rosewood is generally unfinished? And with a finish it will definately get darker
Yep. True. But it's slightly fuzzy feeling.
I don't think mine has a finish on it at all. I thought it might be hard to get one to stick to it since it is an oily wood. I remember seeing people post that they use a very find sandpaper once in a while on it to knock down the fuzzy feel if it is needed. After a while the grain is evened out and doesn't need it anymore. Mine has stayed smooth feeling.
I love cocobolo. We got some little pieces in Costa Rica in the 90's. Hadn't known previously that there are are some PRSi with it.
Oh. That's from Havok Guitars. Bought it on Reverb. Guy "makes" GORGEOUS necks but gets himself in trouble by not giving accurate delivery times and then disappearing for a couple of weeks and not answering emails or questions.
