Jumbo frets ? :gawe:
Yes.
Bolt on, maple neck, rosewood fretboard; standard stuff, but with cool inlays.
Y U NO LIKE EBONY ?
Because I couldn't find a 24 fret neck without a locking nut with an Ebony fretboard.

Also get rid of the caps, you're getting gradually less amusing every time you use them.

It adds a dramatic effect, and "y u no" looks stupid. But I understand you judgement.

Alder is one of the three best tone woods! Considering the thrash sound I'm trying to get, Mahogany isn't really appropriate, and Ash is too bright. Basswood isn't really what I want either due to its fragility.

Basswood sounds pretty similar overall. Mahogany has a deep sounds but breaks your back while you play.

I sit down most of the time, so it doesn't affect me, plus it goes well with rhythm licks.

But it's more suited to modern metal; plus it doesn't have enough mids when you downtune; it just ends up sounding like a muddy mess.

I've no idea what the wood on my guitars are. I just really like having no Middle and maximum Bass, Treble and Gain. =D

I'm referring to Mahogany on my previous post.
Either way, my second favorite guitar tone is from an Alder bodied guitar (the tone they have in Vader's recent works), after Exodus's recent tone of their last two albums. And yes, they had Mahogany bodies, although I think most of the tone was lent but the amp and playing style.. I personally don't support the idea of using woods that are dying out (Mahogany is an African wood and doesn't grow much elsewhere) too, although that may just be a side point.

I've often considered what guitars would sound like if artificial compounds were used instead of wood.

I think it has decent enough mid, though I never downtune more that D standard on my Ibanez.

What did he do? o.o

btw, I have no Internet at home 'til possibly the end of the week


On the plus side, I've finished Valentinian Helibot, but it's a glitch on Grannies (which is actually rather fun :3)

Now for Legs21 Spider the Glitch for Aloran Hazard :D
