Are we ever going to get rosewood boards?

[timstar5150]

I can live with the hum hum config, although I would prefer H/S or H but rosewood boards would make me buy one of the prod models.

Prediction: its not in the cards

[toejam]

Find a USA pointy from a few years back... they were available with rosewood, maple and ebony. They also were available with choice of H, H/H, H/S, H/S/S, V-trem or Floyd.

Have you played one of these yet? If you haven't you won't care what the fretboard is.

[Grandturk]

You could always lake it to a luthier, have him plane off the fretboard and glue down a new rosewood board.

[Newc voice on] Break out the Dremel and do that yourself already, you candy ass! I mean, come on - it's no big feat to slice up a one-piece maple neck and add a new fretboard. You'd think this were brain surgery or somthing. [/Newc voice off]

:ROTF:

I think there should be an added switch for a newc voice. Maybe it could play a demonic laugh over your computer speakers...or just say fuck you.

Very cool... I've been waiting for them to offer the precut boards with a compound radius.

Those Stew Mac boards aren't cut for the Floyd nut, are they??

No, but they give you enough wood behind the nut slot to convert it.

Unless you're too gaddamn lazy!

For some reason, rosewood doesn't strike me as being "Charvel" enough.

[Chubtone]

Eddies Charvels + Warrens Charvels + George's Tiger striped Charvel = Maple.

Coolest Charvels ever in the coolest Charvel players hands ever = Maple

So I think if they could only choose one neck wood configuration they chose the most "correct" or "Charvelest" neck wood to use.
