Why is Bloodwood not a more popular neck wood around here?

I've got a bloodwood on padouk. It feels nice.

When a guy in a priest's collar says, "Look at my shaft," I feel EXTREMELY uncomfortable.  Nice guitar, though, Markeaux!

+1!!    :icon_biggrin:

Check out this shaft:

Dammit, I was hoping that one stayed hidden until my xmas bonus cleared!

But since you brought it up, how do you all think that'll look on a dinky P with a flame maple top?  I'm thinking pretty damn good...

Bloodwood is one of my fave exotics, my Purdue Guitar has a bloodwood board and erm, "tone block" on the body, I just love the iridescence it has, and the tone is pretty amazing.

Oh no you don't!
Black bodies and red necks are my thing.

Are you sure you want that?  It has no frets.

I'm not sure.  I'm not a fan of the dinky P body style.  I would think a standard P might be a better match.

For this neck, I was actually thinking of something a bit more plain body, which would let the neck be the most dominant element.  How about a white (or cream) body with a black pickguard?

The body was a fleBay nab a while ago, it came with a fretless (!) 8 string neck

hm, a not-quite-white body would work great, then you can even get away with gold hardware...

I actually never use the term 'shaft' when it comes to necks and woods...
but since Joey brought it up, I decided to join in . in my own perverse way...

Don't blame Joey for bringing up your shaft.

BTW, I misread it at first, and I thought it said, "Look at my Shat."
