GoldtopFiend Posted July 29, 2011 Share Posted July 29, 2011 Has anybody played/acquired one these "Raw Power" Studios? They Apparently are ALL Maple- Body, Neck and even the Fretboard?! I don't know how this one slipped by me (actually I do, I was in jail the year they came out) but had I known about em I probably would've taken them into consideration when I bought my latest Gibson. It's definitely an enticing concept to me- a Gibson (and a Les Paul, at that-) with a Maple neck and fretboard. How do they sound? How do they feel? I can't remember ever hearing anybody talking about them in these forums, so I imagine they never sold all that well- is this right? Do people not like them for some kind of qualitative issue, or is it just a purist type of thing where it's too far from the proven formula? Any clips? Youtube vids? Thanks in advance fellas.

jacknikkels Posted July 29, 2011 Share Posted July 29, 2011 When it comes to maple necks/boards, buy them from the professionals: Fender. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
