Uses a laminated top and back made of fast growing Bamboo.

Hmm not a fan of how it looks, reminds me of laminated flooring. Maybe a black guard would look a bit better.
I do like the use of bamboo though.

$1400... no more than I'd expect for any other x-th Anniversiary USA Fender model, really.

first act and gibson were already on it, but the problem is they don't sell well.

I imagine it looks pretty much identical to the front, minus the pickguard and hardware

I'm a moron. I read the initial post as the front was laminate wood, and the back was bamboo. I thought they were different, in other words.

thanks..
i couldn't find any info on the Fender site for it..
C-shaped maple neck with a flatter 9.5� radius and 22 Medium Jumbo frets.
this makes me sad..
but i just prefer vintage radius and frets..
