Who else is waiting for a rosewood neck?

[DirtyHippie]

Looks like mine won't be here for a while. They estimate march 21st. I guess they are waiting on the neck to be built. Not sure about the build process, but a neck is fairly vital from what I hear.

Just got my Reflex 5 HSS white with all rosewood neck, will post pics later, the neck is worth waiting for. Can't wait to plug it into
My Orange AD 200 MK3 tonight at rehearsal.

Jeeze--you had to go and order the exact bass I wanted, didn't you? Big Al 5H in Tangerine Pearl.

Man, I hope someone buys it fast.

I'm extremely tempted but I'm trying to resist.

Part of me is extremely glad that I spent my bonus paying off a credit card before I saw this.

And, part of me is weeping like a kid whose balloon was just popped by Groot in Despicable Me.

For you all rosewood neck guys, I'm looking at a Bongo HH and Stingray HS. My current EBMM basses are a Big Al SSS and Sterling HH. Which do you think will make the best compliment?

I like each one equally, price is exactly the same and I have experience with a Bongo HH but never tried an HS Stingray.

Picked up my Stingray SLO Special HS today. It was worth the wait!!!

 

[bassmonkeee]

Oh, wow. That's awesome.

Congrats!

Candy apple and RW looks stunning. Congrats!

New rosewood run with no glossy headstock? Cool.

Didn't they used to say no pics, no bass around here?

Man those rosewood necks are making me want to sell some basses and get one!

 

[DirtyHippie]

I just got off the phone with the one and only Pete DuBaldo and paid for the remainder of my Reflex. He told me that it should ship by early next week. Sadly, it has to go to the east coast to Pete, and then back out west to me. I would drive to SLO and save some time and shipping if they would let me.

Too many sexy basses and not enough money!! I need to win the lottery.

Maybe this will cheer you up: I once knew a mailman who saw his own Sports Illustrated Swimsuit magazine in the sorting area of the post office, but he had to leave it there to be delivered to his home by his own mailman. true story

 

[DirtyHippie]

Tollie, thanks for the story. I am beyond giddy at this point. No cheering up necessary.

Are u guys talking about necks or fingerboards? Nothing sexy bout a rosewood neck imho.... but ive never seen one. Rosewood fingerboards however i have on all my guitars and love em. On bass though i have all kinds of woods used in fingerboards

Solid rosewood neck, and board. Plus, the Reflex bass I ordered will have a rosewood top on the body as well.
