Jack-Flash-Jr X-rated Bob wrote Arjun Menon wrote X-rated Bob wrote More paisley That is some stunning flame there. Indeed, but it's kind of wasted. I can't see the point of spending good money to get a nice flame or birdseye figure on the BACK of the neck where it's not likely to be seen. A flame top I understand, but a flame back of the neck? No... don't understand that unless it has some impact on the tone that common or garden maple does not. I wouldn't mind having a guitar that had a paisley front (and I do think this one is rather tasty) and a plain back. Ja... ja... ja... I'm the guy who posted that picture in the first place. The inner turmoil keeps me awake at night, and I find myself contemplating if the flame is still beautiful if it's inside a branch on a tree deep within an impenetrable forest and thus will never be seen, not even by woodpeckers. I think the answer is the sound of one hand clapping. Hey, we're looking at it right now!
singemonkey Let's not forget that the whole flame concept on guitars comes from the backs of antique violins.

nicovlogg Everytime someone posts that pic of Ms. Momsen I can't help thinking that her skirt is really, really just a little bit too short. ?

---mario--- I'm not generally a fan of over the top inlays but a good wooden inlay that doesn't spoil the wood's character leaves me staring ?
deefstes Norman86 wrote Fender Custom Shop Flamed Maple Strat with Flamed Maple Neck That is an absolutely drop dead beautiful guitar... but I can't seem to make up my mind as to whether I like it or not. I know, that sentence probably makes no sense. Thing is, you can't deny that this particular flamed maple finish is gorgeous but a part of me feels that it doesn't belong on a Fender. I reckon if any other guitar had that finish I would have been in love but the fact that it's a Fender almost makes it look like a bit of an abomination. I always like a Fender that has that futuristic look of the 60's. Probably not making any sense here. ?
Norman86 Nope, thats my problem too... Even if i was given that guitar, i probably wouldnt like it still... though it is really gorgeous... then again, it could just be that i dont really like flamed maple! lol! Either way, its still nice to look at!! ?
