grenadillabama Posted January 21, 2019 Share Posted January 21, 2019 Fender had a spalted Telecaster gtr I almost bought for $800 new. It did not sound quite like a Telecaster to me so I didn't get it. Great neck ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marc S Posted January 21, 2019 Share Posted January 21, 2019 Definitely not for me. I'm not usually keen on spalted Maple either, unless it's dyed / painted (sometimes) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
petebassist Posted January 21, 2019 Share Posted January 21, 2019 I do like spalted, and burnt, but maybe not at the same time. Try playing this baby: 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Horizontalste Posted January 21, 2019 Share Posted January 21, 2019 Nah.......... However, I'm about to start building a new pedalboard that will be 'lightly' torched & sealed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yorks5stringer Posted January 21, 2019 Share Posted January 21, 2019 So that's the meaning of a 'Torch' song? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the wood of the body is decent, i prefer to see the wood ( matron ) If it's cheapo wood, then a single colour will do for me, but YMMV, naturally Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cuzzie Posted January 22, 2019 Share Posted January 22, 2019 I agree, it isn’t!!! needs to be set alight and then put out with a spade. If there was a bass that looked like Danny Trejo’s face that is perfect for me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gjones Posted January 22, 2019 Share Posted January 22, 2019 If it actual had been in a fire and retrieved from the ashes, it could be seen as cool. On the other hand, if somebody just had a go at it with a blowtorch......then nah. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cuzzie Posted January 23, 2019 Share Posted January 23, 2019 Or it could be a natural wood process where fungus has got in like buckeye Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
