daveq Posted January 5, 2004 Report Share Posted January 5, 2004 I'm looking for opinions on where to draw the line on mixing too many different figured woods on a guitar. For example, would a guitar with a birdseye top and flamed maple neck be stupid? Or the other way around? How about a quilted maple top and flamed maple neck? I think wolfgangs have birdseye necks/fingerboards with flamed maple tops, right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GuitarMaestro Posted January 5, 2004 Report Share Posted January 5, 2004 Its a matter of taste I think. A flame maple neck and a nice figured top(i.e. quilted maple) is my favorite combination. The Wolfgangs are built this way too and I think they look really great. If the guitar is for you then do it as you like. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

darren wilson Posted January 5, 2004 Report Share Posted January 5, 2004 The Jackson PC1 has a quilted maple top and a flame maple neck (and fretboard!) and i think it looks pretty cool. It works surprisingly well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
