Production Model Basswood with Maple Tops?

[Icel3m0nt3a]

Heard and read many good things about a good Basswood body with Maple Top and quite interested to try it out. However, most of those that offer these are boutique builders like Suhr and Tom Anderson.

Operating on a tighter budget, are there any more production models using this combination? I know LTD has some but most of them have a floyd, which I do not want. The other one i've seen is the Swing BSZ, though I do not like the high gloss finish.

Looking for HSH Config and non-floyd rose. Also best if solid and thick maple top and real flames or quilt, not veneer or laminate. Thanks for the input!

Really difficult to know since loads of production of these are more the boutique builders. Basswood is a bog standard wood that's cost-worthy, consistent in sound so slapping on a nice AAAAA flame/quilted top is difficult for the price point.
If you can save more (double your budget) you could try looking for a local builder (here or within a couple of countries closeby) to build one. For the price you can get the specs you really want while not paying Tom Anderson / Surh prices. More expensive than the Swings above though and you will have to wait for it...which is actually part of the fun! I'm getting one built in Thailand and fingers crossed it won't be a dodo but having played a few in the workshop i'm sold.
