Yea I was thinking of maple because its the cheapest but with the required finish it would make it slightly more expensive than padouk or canary which don't need a finish(at least from what I can gather)
I'm still trying to decide between padouk and canary.
Yea, I was really tempted to go for a higher radius, my SG has 12" radius, but after playing a couple of teles and mustangs I really like the lower radius because it makes all the bar chord stuff I've been working on so much easier. What I...

The 24" mustang is perfect for my fingers but they only come with 22 frets, while a 24 3/4" with 22 frets SG neck feels right out of the comfort zone in the first couple of frets...
