That would be most of the maple-topped guitars:

1) Axis Super Sport
2) 20th Anniversary Silhouette
3) Steve Morse Y2D

Yeah, but those only have rosewood fretboards. I would like to get a solid rosewood neck without the rosewood top.

I think that they don't do this cuz rosewood aren't too hard to hold much tension from strings.


It's more like a "soft wood" !!^

Maple is harder and can sound balanced too.

If that's the case why do they have it on the rosewood model? Other companies offer it.

rosewood is a fine neck for wood, its just hard to get. WE may do a few special runs later in the year

BP you are just doing that to taunt me arent you - I even asked Jon if I could send back the neck from my ASS and pay you for a rosewood one.....

You just want me to increase the U.S. import profits single handedly dont you :rolleyes:
