The G Posted May 7, 2010 Share Posted May 7, 2010 Congratulations. Is the neck Madagascar rosewood? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rock Bottom Posted May 7, 2010 Author Share Posted May 7, 2010 YUP! Madagascar Rosewood it is!.. Unfortunately, I don't have a recording setup, so no clips will be forthcoming. Maybe, I'll get a video up on youtube in the near future. Thanks for the kind words, folks...I am thrilled, to say the least. I went from a $1000. Takamine to this! Plus it has the LR Baggs Element installed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rock Bottom Posted May 8, 2010 Author Share Posted May 8, 2010 Thanks to all for your kind remarks. She is a real beauty, sweet sound...and LIGHT as a feather. Tony, did you get that J45TV yet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fortyearspickn Posted May 9, 2010 Share Posted May 9, 2010 That is one of the nicest looking guitars I've ever seen. Have fun breaking it in. Quite a step up from a $1K Takemine! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bkharmony Posted May 9, 2010 Share Posted May 9, 2010 Very nice! I have a very similar Adi/Quilted Hog J-45, but I think from an earlier run. Mine lacks the rosette and cool fret markers. But just like yours, mine is crazy light. And boy, does it project. Easily the loudest guitar I own. I'd be curious to know what they did to make these lighter and louder than the typical J-45. Congrats, and enjoy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rock Bottom Posted May 9, 2010 Author Share Posted May 9, 2010 Cool, Tony. I'm sure Andrew at E.M. Shorts is taking good care of you. He is a fabulous guy to deal with. Keep us posted on her arrival! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rock Bottom Posted May 9, 2010 Author Share Posted May 9, 2010 Thanks, Jack. I am having a hard time putting her down. This guitar just feels like magic in my hands...light, responsive, loud and tasteful all at once. I can't imagine how good she will sound 5 years down the road. Needless to say, I am one happy camper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jinder Posted May 9, 2010 Share Posted May 9, 2010 RB, that is one edible-looking '45! God only knows how good she must sound. You are a lucky man...that quilted Mahogany looks out of this world. Stunning! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
