In a thread posted a couple of months ago, I indicated my interest in procuring a rosewood-neck guitar. Lots of great suggestions, but I ended up pouncing on a Core acoustic at a great price instead.
At that time, our good friend @sergiodeblanc mentioned that a friend might be looking to sell a McRosie (McCarty with Rosewood neck). I passed at the time, due to the incoming acoustic.
But the itch never got scratched...so I hit up Sergio again. He connected me to his friend, and...
Played it just a bit after it arrived today - that naked rosewood does feel quite different!
Did not have a chance to crank it up - various telecons for both my wife and me - so end of the work day is going to have come first.
I get to compare it to my other McCartys: a Korina Brazzy McSoapie, a Spruce HB Piezo, and I guess my SH DC 594 - I kinda feel that last one is almost a different model. The HB too, I suppose.
Probably not going to be able to do the comparison tonight, since we're going into the (home) studio for more recording...
