Its actually an oldie on this board, but now she's mine, and here to stay.
Emerald dye with a light burstover on quilt maple, solid.
1 piece mahogany back, non-chambered
rosewood neck and board. My luthier here does not want to budge, he says its undeniably brazilian. I said, maybe its indian? no, no way, he said, its much too dense, too oily, to heavy, to rich in feel and tone. the other luthier here thought that too, by the way. so... that makes BRW neck #2!
she's loaded with seth lovers, and at first I wanted to take them out, solder in the motherbuckers, but the low frets and seth lovers (pafs) give it such a nice vintage feel and tone, that I'll just leave them as they are. it really gives me all the vintage LP tones, but also, with more gain, the paul gilbert-tone from the last couple of years, since he's been using korina bodies and classic air thingies by dimarzio, what are they called again?
its a solid again, but very, very, very light! hitting 3,5 kilo's....
the color is very difficult to capture on a picture. it gets yellowish, but IRL, its really green.
the 2nd and 5th pic are as close as I could get...
