Hmm yes its been a while since I started this thread...But anyhow just wanted to say that I love the look
of a nice dark rosewood fretboard on a blackcherry burst body...However after playing this guitar for a while it has made
me realize that there is a difference in the feel of the rosewood fretboard compared to maple, can anyone else notice or am
I just being pedantic? Rosewood to me feels somewhat spongier where as maple feels alot more solid, this is the only way I can describe it. Tone wise I would say there is not a huge difference, maybe the maple is a tad brighter.
Point to my story is I think prefer maple fingerboards for the feel.

Wonderful guitar. Belated congrats.

One question. Does the D-Tuna work well with that bridge? I have the exact same bridge and have been hesitant to purchase a D-Tuna because I've heard mention that it doesn't play well with the newer bridges.

Thanks - John

Thanks dude. Yes the d-tuna works fine with it except its not exactly in tune when you drop and go back to standard. It needs a slight tuning, and I mean very slight...
