Cheers.  It's a a McCarty I'm after, and the US import prices now make it quite expensive  :(

I reckon a UK one should be around the £1800 mark...

I think Brad Whitford plays a melanacon with a solid rosewood neck.
I think they have a dealer in Warrington.
They do a really nice Tele style guitar.

if I remember my research before getting my custom build, I'm sure there are some old Tom Anderson guitars floating about with a rosewood neck and also Nik Huber guitars in Germany do some.

Not sure thats possible for £1500 unless you can find second hand which are pretty rare. I was looking at rosewood necks a while back on PRS custom 24's and they were slightly more then standard ones @£2k. McCartny's are more expensive so they'll be £1.8k second hand. PEACH guitars had some a few months back. Might be worth asking them as they get nice PRS in all the time.

Cheers Hunter!  That works out at around £2000 with all taxes and shipping, plus I can't try before I buy.  :(

I'm hanging on for a UK one around £1800....

I'm on the lookout for a PRS McCarty Rosewood, which has a solid rosewood neck, but as they're not made any more (and were a custom order when they were) they're a bit thin on the ground here in the UK.  There are two on eBay, way overpriced at £2300, and I know of one other around the same money.  The other PRS option is the Modern Eagle, but they are £3500+.

I really want to try a rosewood neck guitar, so does anyone know of any other options out there around the £1500 mark???

I don't want to put a price on anyone's work for them, but I dare say Feline or Wez-V would be able to knock something up in that price range AND you'd get it built to your own spec.

EDIT: ignore this, it pays to read the entire thread first  :roll:
