Congrats Tristan, that's an amazing 20th :D

I really like it with the maple neck, most 20ths I've seen had rosewood necks.

Will check out the video when I get home from work.

Can't beat the day a new Ball arrives!

What a surprise. Brilliant playing by Tristan. :p

Seriously - that is one beautiful top! Dang I wish the 20th for sale at GC by my house had a maple board - it would have been mine by now!

Tristan - thanks for the MP3 in the other thread - very fun to solo over! :D

Tristan do you prefer maple or rosewood boards, I thought you were into Lukes for a bit but then you were playing the maple silo special alot -

nothing will replace de black sparkle silo, but the particular sound of the 20 th was in my mind since the day I played it...for my own compositions, it's the best...

this guitar can go in a lot of direction, ans I use my amps with less gain to let the guitar talk, due to its high level outout...I love it !

I love maple fretboards...it sounds a bit more sparkly and the contact is harder and warmer...

and yes, that's the big poppa's boogie ;)

I knew the guitar would be here this morning for a couple of days, and I was so excited yesterday at night that it was hard to sleep...so when I came to law down a bit to sleep after recording the video I took it with me and put it on on stand in front of the bed...lol

I'm just like a kid today...really really happy !!!!!!!!!!
