only god knows because that birdseye is lovely.. im a sucker for it... always makes a bass look awsome and boutique.. i take it you prefer the slight tone difference....

No, that's not the reason, though there is the slightest hint it is a bit darker sounding. The bass body is maple too, and the necks have graphite rods, so it is quite a bright bass.
there is another reason.....

Is the maple neck wider than the rosewood.

Nope! they're identical, though when you see them side by side the darker colour does look narrower (hence dark colours make you look slimmer!)


Shall I put you out of your misery?

Well, this is the reason. I couldn't let a piece THIS nice just sit around not being used.
I haven't seen many necks with more lovely figuring, and the vintage tint just makes it pop:

Feel free to post any other nice birdseye eye-candy!

Loving the thread but I find the comment about the missus slightly sexist! :) I have a guitarist friend (male) who only plays dark-coloured instruments because, in his view, they look smaller. As he's a little chap, he prefers not to be swamped by his guitar...

Apologies if offended. I'm sure it could have been used on flip side that his boyfriend wanted it to match his new outfit. :)
No offence was meant to anyone or any gender.
It does kinda restrict things a bit though. Surely women use similar quotes about hubbies. ?


Sorry
Dave
