I'd say Epiphones outdo themselves at times.. Some of their guitars are bad, but some are SERIOUSLY darn good.. If the paintjob is already so killer, you can already expect a quality piece..
So Travisser.. You got the Suhr, the blue Epiphone, and a Jem Jr? A lot man.. Hahaha.. Hopefully see how lah this Monday! :mrgreen::mrgreen:
Godspeed64: nope, it's not boutique. The body's from Warmoth and neck's from USACG. Pickups are GFS Mean90s. Sadly the black nickel covers have tarnished quite a bit from playing though.
It's unfinished indian rosewood. It's a real joy to play.
When I was getting the parts I was deciding between an all maple neck or an all rosewood neck, in the end I got the rosewood for the raw feel, not really a fan of the glossy maple necks even though I have one on my other tele.
haha mero i dont really like tortoise shel pickguards but when i saw your tele, something about it just makes me melt! the rosewood neck does make the guitar scream I AM BOUTIQUE.
just one question though, aint the rosewood neck really heavy? coupled with a lightweight semihollow body, do you get neckdives?
nope no neckdiving, the rosewood neck I have is a bit on the light side so that helps. The whole guitar's really really light though. No backbreaking here :-D
