Members RaVenCAD Posted July 30, 2010 Members Share Posted July 30, 2010 Carvin does too, it's called an option 50.. Usually happens if you ask for a weird color or something. Ever called em about it? They might do it and just not talk about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In fact, they staight up told me that! I am not in the place to buy right now.. but maybe later Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members tedmich Posted July 30, 2010 Members Share Posted July 30, 2010 ummm you guys know there are 30+ wood that are called "rosewood" and generalizing anything about their properties (including "tone") is pretty meaningless right? That said, it does look quite nice! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members RaVenCAD Posted July 30, 2010 Members Share Posted July 30, 2010 Generalizing about ANY wood is meaningless.. Even if it comes from the same tree. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not really. Most of the rosewoods that are used in guitars are some form of Dalbergia. It tends to be dense and sometimes oily. That's why it doesn't need a finish. The oily nature of the wood keeps it from drying out and cracking. The oily nature of the wood can also act as a treble dampener. We hear this as warm.

Members kherman Posted July 30, 2010 Members Share Posted July 30, 2010 You're right, 11 it is.. Always thought it was 12 (2 per string) but it makes sense that one has to be missing. And you're both wrong! There's "22" Thus, why they are called the. C22, M22, S22, H22 . :D :D . I know, I'm being a smart ass!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
