stock update... this Metro should totally kill... solid ash body, 8.56 pounds, all I'd do to it is slap some singles in it. DONE.

Morado is also called Bolivian Rosewood, Pau Ferro, & Santos Rosewood. That's why the metro line with Morado is called the RV4 or RV5. R is for rosewood. It is odd to see it called morado rosewood, but also makes sense to me.

it's not a big deal, but the "problem" with this is, it's actually NOT a rosewood (Dalbergia genus). it's in a closely related genus, Machaerium, but still, at least technically, not actually a rosewood. is it a real problem with the stock page? nah, but that's I think why bass12 mentioned it.

What were the specs for that bass. The body looks like it's okoumé. Walnut top and a Brazilian board?
