I had to pick my jaw up off the floor after seeing this one. This has to be the coolest looking spalt I've ever seen. George does it again... dang... wish I was rich...
I realize the groove shop has this picture badged, but just so nobody's confused, I am not affiliated with them in any way. I just like to go to their site and peruse pics 'cause (clearly) they get some ubelievable stuff in sometimes. Just in case...
I'm sorry to say, but this one ownz the previous IMO, these dudes sure know how to pick them wood slabs
Nah, I may be shot thru the head for sayin' so, but there's just something about buckeye I'm not all that hot for. Maybe it's the grey/yellow theme. Yeah, it's striking as all getout, but I like the spalt way better.
Maple, and actually it's called spalted, but there is some burl in there as well. Basically, it's an all messed up mutant piece of wood, but I love it!
my god, now you got me really eager to get some new pics of my Conklin, it will have a spalt top too, cant wait to see it with some finish on
That is the one piece of buckeye that I have seen that I actually like. I think I'd go with the buckeye over the maple... but both are amongst the nicest looking basses I've seen. Oversoul... I want to see the Conklin!
