ah, ok. I hadn't thought of that.
also, sorry if I came off a bit curmudgeonly in that post. the lulled response gives me the feeling I'm like an old man ranting in the corner from the comfort of his easy chair. I mean, which I totally am. =]

wow, the new strat bodies actually have decent routes now. H-S-S instead the cheapo swimming pool route. I don't know about that 'paulownia' wood though... "Want a guitar that's LOUD acoustically?" uh, not really.

This actually sounds like a really cool timber. It grows back fast, is historically symbolic with The Ladies, and is used for surf boards, guitars, and furniture. It can also regrow from it's roots.
