cant say i dig the tunes all that much but hey. you have rediculously good taste in guitars (tbf, the riffage is pretty pwn, just not my favorite vocals)

I dunno, I've never been a huge fan of maple boards (the only real exception being on Tele-style guitars). Why are they so lusted after?

Is this like the general fascination with blondes (which I also don't understand)?

I dont know, I guess I might have picked up on it because it's a "fad" but I wanted one before I even saw Dave Weiners newest 7 and Buz's.
It's something I started to want after I first so the Loomis I think. I love ebony, but on some guitars it looks boring so I go for maple which has the similar quality i like ebony for: Not being rosewood.

blue and maple is my favorite

but then again, blue and ebony can easily be equally pwn if not pwner

repaint the shitlock to be blue and then coat the fretboard of it in tar

Because maple fretboards have a slightly 'snappier' and brighter tone. Which helps when using alot of distortion as it helps bring the guitar out more in the mix.

and raw "oiled" maple necks have a feeling all their own.
It's addictive, you can really feel the fret board under your fingers.
To me anyway, it just feels like a more responsive wood.

Maple just has better attack and definition than the other woods - which is why I prefer it.

I know this thread is old, but damn this guitar is beautiful.
