Rosewood Necks..

[beej]

Who knows! The RW HH AL is certainly here for a while (I'd gather). I'm kicking myself for not ordering a RW SSS AL when they were available. Maybe one day again.

I can love and hate rosewood necks, I've had a couple of EBMM rosewoods which play beautifully and feel great, then I've played two where the neck felt waxy and slow... I guess it depends on the tree!

Of course I posted pics...

No pics, no gee-tar!

Here is the topic with lots of them http://forums.ernieball.com/music-man-guitars/51514-i-have-two-balls-p.html

She has to put up with tons of gain and shake that emerges of the laney head and the marshall stack...it does sound LOUD

I have one of the Axis with the rosewood body and neck I bought a few years ago, after seeing the guitar at winter Namm. Great guitar and I wouldn't part with for the world.

Oh boy, I'd love to see some pics of that beauty!

I don't have a digital camera at the moment, so I am unable to post photos. The neck on the guitar is perfect and plays so smooth with ease. I always find cool stuff at the Namm Show, especially at the Ernie Ball booth.

You guys don't find your rosewood necks....dark?
No pun intended
Dark as in a little darker sounding.

My guitar does not sound dark. Remember it depends also on what amp you are using.

No. Actually I find them to be a little "snappier" in the upper registers. My rosewood Axis SS is actually a lively guitar unplugged.

My Axis MM90 Rosewood is a tone machine...not dark at all, but then the body under the cap is ash and the MM90s are big single coils.

 

[dannymusic]

I find myself polarized to them. There is something mysterious about them.

That's why I try to have all my guitars with rosewood fretboard at least, it looks just right, especially with sexy small dots.
