It feels very nice, although, not as smooth as raw roasted maple because the grain isn't as tight, but still really smooth. And the color is really different. I didn't choose the "dark" option so I got something more of a medium brown with a lot of streaks that are almost a subtle rainbow of...
The island of fire and ice!
I was on the Kona side and used to do a lot of photography. Kilauea was far from where I lived and it was tough to try to sync up with all of the major lava events due to work. I have gotten up super close where my shoes melted, my arm hair singed and I poked it with...
Fun fact about ghostrider25, I lived on the Big Island of Hawaii which is the land of Koa up until 8 years ago. It was more plentiful there than on mainland USA, obviously, but even that well started to get quite a bit drier as the years passed by. Koa is just so slow growing. I have no idea how...

…you have to get burst over if you get natural masked...
That's weird. I have a rear-routed Strat jack from 2015...
...which I now regret not getting a 7/8 side jack so it's just as well. I was thinking, functionally, it's nice to sit on a couch to practice and not have the cable being smashed into the cushion, but I should've just used a 90deg plug...
