Glad to see the LOG is still alive! (BTW, I humbly own a fretless 44-01, thinking a US 44-64 is my next axe, but would love to customize it slightly  ) | I'm curious about this also. |

The Lakland site does list the top wood a flame maple, FWIW.

It still amazes me to play it and the variety of tones just blows me away. It's the last 5 string I'll own (unless I luck into a 55-94!), just can't see needing anything else!
