JJW Posted February 7, 2016 Share Posted February 7, 2016 I really like it: [url="http://rover.ebay.com/rover/1/710-53481-19255-0/1?icep_ff3=2&pub=5575090229&toolid=10001&campid=5337531593&customid=&icep_item=321993882855&ipn=psmain&icep_vectorid=229508&kwid=902099&mtid=824&kw=lg"]http://rover.ebay.com/rover/1/710-53481-19255-0/1?icep_ff3=2&pub=5575090229&toolid=10001&campid=5337531593&customid=&icep_item=321993882855&ipn=psmain&icep_vectorid=229508&kwid=902099&mtid=824&kw=lg[/url] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PlungerModerno Posted February 7, 2016 Share Posted February 7, 2016 Honestly . . . I'm scared. Partly by the headstock (I don't know if there's a headstock truss rod access hole in the middle of the peghead or not!). Also this sentence doesn't help: "[i]The neck is also AAAA Quilted Maple, with twin strips of Purpleheart running the length of the neck and headstock. These strips, in addition to the non-adjustable truss rod, provide excellent stability. [/i]" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EmmettC Posted February 8, 2016 Share Posted February 8, 2016 I'm not too keen on the the control cover, it looks a bit loose. Better than I could do, but I wouldn't want to buy something like that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mykesbass Posted February 8, 2016 Share Posted February 8, 2016 That Purpleheart board looks as though it should be awarded a Purple Heart Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] My thoughts were along the same lines - if that is or was a truss rod access hole. It could be a trick of the light or a blemish in the wood or finish - but I doubt it.
