I don't know if HE likes, but I know that I *LOVE* it! :crazy2:
-
Get in quick, 5 hours to go and no bids at $7,500!
-
I just made a mess of myself. Excuse me.
-
I love the 70s headstock <3
-
Why do you do this to us?

R$21699, think a decente price for a guitar :lol:

There was actually a time in my teens, where I thought that Rosewood would actually be gained from gigantic rose bushes. Until I learned that it's English for the German "Palisander"
Just thought I'd share :O)

that looks so nice!
i like how strats looks but i just cant imagine playing one. i think im too fat for the strat.
that looks even better than a fresh waffle with a healthy dose of slagroom!
-
That's truly awful!
I wouldn't take it if it was free....

if I were you Dave I would... then you could sell it and use the money for a PRS :D

I liked the sound of that particular Phil X rosewood neck Strat, but I could never buy anything like it. This one looks awful to me, and I don't like the rosewood Tele either.
Plus I bet it weighs a TON!
-
It's because it's not blue isn't it?

Agreed about the weight, but do you not even like the look of the rosewood necks?
I think if Warmoth ever had a one-piece rosewood VM Tele neck (in the right shape) I'd be extremely tempted to snap it up (they have loads right now, but they're all Standard Thin :x ).

1 Piece rosewood VM tele neck in '59 Roundback? they have (not in showcase, custom order :P)
-
It's just Strats in general. I can't stand them, as I've stated before. I even started a thread about it a while back :lol:

Really? I'd completely forgotten. :wink:
But seriously, I only asked because you said you didn't like the look of the Tele either.

:lol: Yeah yeah yeah, I know :P
..... but I'm fussy, and I'd want a nice straight-grained piece. It's too expensive to just buy blind.
-
It's that "whole rosewood" look - I just don't like it!
-
He's in denial lads.

The cheapest all rosewood neck on showcase is $337, the same price as the initial 1 piece rosewood from custom order (+35 if '59 Roundback)...
But the fussy I understand because I'm also... But lets say that Indian Rosewood will be plain look 90% of time at least, I'd be more worried if it was Brazilian...
He's in denial lads.
:lol: True!

Jacarandá for Fernando
Sounds like a classic case of Denial of GAS attack to me... Dave is just trying to throw us of the trail as he swoops in with a last minute bid...
On the other hand - I am sensing that Roo & Tele = Roobaiting is rapidly being replaced by Twinfan & Strat = Dave-baiting....

Yeah, Indian is fairly plain but the grain can still be nicely straight or just a bit too wonky:

I wouldn't even consider Brazilian, this costs $995(!!!) but it's bloody ugly (I don't think Warmoth will export the Brazilian anyway):

-
Jacarandá for Fernando
Yes!
and Brazilian Rosewood is "Jacarandá da Bahia" (da is from and Bahia is a state in Brazil), where the portuguese first arrived in BR. Rosewood used to grow in the coast not on Amazonia...
Yeah Philly, I know your problem with the look TOO well :(
-
There is a bit of Twinfan baiting going on here.
Dave I'm not sure how you are going to feel about this vid
It's what you are still gassing for but........... somebody is touching her the wrong way

I actually like that very much :) Needs to be mated with a suitable body of course. J'Lo ass and a flat bust don't mix.

It would be nice to know how much that strat weighs :P

-
great look that full rosewood strat
-
I don't like all rosewood guitars.
It look like they polarise opinion!
-
The weight would be a major issue for me. And maybe the tone, who knows. :?
But I'm genuinely surprised that anyone doesn't like the look.
Stupid really, because we all have different opinions about everything else! :lol:
-
I love the look. But then again I'm a fan of coffee table guitars. My SG is worn brown and I go weak at the knees for dark wood grain.

I'm really, truly surprised that is your opinion Philly. How dare you be surprised that I don't like it! :wink:
