WOW. If for whatever reason you change your mind, can I have first dibs on this new CJ?  |

Does anyone know what the upcharge is for Madagascar Rosewood, and what are the sound differences between East Ind Rw /Braz RW /Mad RW.

Very Cool
I am also waiting on a MadRose/Ad Om3c around Sept. Seems like Mad Rose is around the same price Brazillian was before all the B A AA AAA grading. Lets hope there enough not to start grading. Good thing is Bruce at Collings doesnt like to make back out of 4 pieces like some of the other guitars makers Ive owned so he waits to find a good piece large enough. How does Honduran Rswd compare for those who have tried both. Ive had some makers say they prefer it to Mad Rose. |

OK, but I'm a big MadRW fan, so I'm planning on keeping this one for a while. The MadRW upcharge was $1000, not bad compared to other builders. I think MadRW has a little more fundamental sound than Brazilian, the short scale and German top should complement it very well. D42BaaaGSB CJMRGSS |

WOW!

that's the best looking mad rose I've seen yet, and the photos make me hydrophobic for the more modest mahogany/adirondack short scale varnish due...... um, soon. Yours is way fancier than mine, but it fits the wood. Mine's tortoise bound throughout, rosette and soundhole ring and all. Austere, in a Shaker kind of way: beauty in minimalism, or some horse hockey like that. tone. That's all I'm looking for. Oh, and mine's a burst. I think. It's been sooooo long. boo hoo, I know. tom

Boiler...I saw it today in person and it is gorgeous and amazing!!! While I was there Steve received a UPS delivery...among other things in the order the oval hole mandolin (one of the sweetest sounding mandos I've personally ever heard) and a sick Varnish CJMhAssSB (as Sonoman drools). Damn I'm glad those two guitars were spoken for!!! This message has been edited. Last edited by: Philco, |

Warning, Tom, do NOT go to the AMW website and look at that absolutely drop dead gorgeous Varnish CJMhAssSB (I think that's the new one that just arrived). Lucky owner is K.B.
