Olive Gold is a way cooler color than it's given credit for. It's not as drastic as Mystic Dream, but it changes shades depending on the angle and the lighting. Really cool. And the Rosewood neck is SUPER comfortable and SMOOTH!

After playing it for a little bit I've gotten an ear for the differences between it and the BFR JP7s I have. The mahogany tone block really does make a difference on the BFRs. And the rosewood neck I'm sure adds a little "darkness" to the tone on this one.

The biggest difference I'm hearing is the bridge pickup orientation. Having the solid bar toward the bridge really adds a lot of bite and attack to the tone. With the pole pieces toward the bridge, the overall tone is a lot fatter and warmer.

And I'm falling in love with non-painted necks now. Every guitar I've had for the last 10 years has had a painted neck...I didn't know what I was missing out on.

That is quite a beauty! That finish is really starting to grow on me. I need to get one of these Rosewood necks...

Yeah, so after setting up a bit more to my liking, intonation, neck relief, etc. I can tell you without a doubt I'm selling the Les Paul. This is what I was hoping I would want to do :D Just means I can get ANOTHER Ball. Thinking about a Silo this time, though...or a 25th...

Good call. You won't miss the Les Paul. That rhymes.
