That's pretty. But the headstock bothers me. Maybe it's the dark contrast to the light neck.
It's a beauty, but the maple fb bothers me too. I think it'd look so much better with rosewood or ebony. Then the matching headstock would look just right.
Y'all sure are a picky bunch! :up:roflmao
Had me a late 70's early 80's (?) MIJ cherry bookmatched maple top Strat. With a rosewood fingerboard. Quite a looker and was far again better than any Am. Std. I ever played. Gave it to my old bandmate when I left Ft. Worth. Mint plastic and gold hardware. Spotless finish and not a ding or scratch. Ed was speechless when I drove up. Rang the doorbell, and handed him the tweed case. He deserved it.
I’m not so picky that I would turn one down if somebody gave it to me.
Now, that's something I'd try.
I like any variations as long as they're "pure" or "organic".
Photoflame, Game of Thrones (believe me, they issued GoT guitars at $35,000), and other stuff, I'll pass.
But any experiments with rosewood and maple are entirely welcome in my hands and ears.
