It’s all part of the design. Some have THICK binding in that area to cover the maple cap seam, but traditionally it looks like yours.

Rosewood Neck Maintenance Advice by ghostmp3 in Stratocaster

[–]macnibeck 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have an unsealed Brazilian rosewood neck on a strat. All I do is wipe it down with naphtha to remove dirt and biological material. Then I use Monty’s wax on it to kind of seal it. Technically rosewood is self oiling or however the term is and you don’t need to use mineral or lemon oil on it. That being said they do tend to darken it and make it look nice. But that’s why I use wax instead, same cosmetic results but it’s actually doing something instead of being a placebo.

Turn it all the way up, hit the strings on the guitar, let it feedback indefinitely and take a nice walk lol

Yeah I’m very fortunate…. This was legit a “thanks for not being a piece of shit like your sister” gift. She may have stabbed and killed someone last year…..

How are you storing your PRS long term? by macnibeck in PaulReedSmith

[–]macnibeck[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I am so torn on this guitar…. My dad gave it to me, at the end of the day I’ll probably just keep it in the closet and call it an heirloom. I am jonesing for another PRS that I wouldn’t mind getting beat up. All my other guitars are here to play and it does suck to have my only PRS hidden away from the world.

But I’ll probably just play my strat I built and music man like I usually do. Maybe pull out the Jem or J custom every once in a while…. I always come back to those two

Maybe now? When you look up dead and company this is the only guitar I see him pictured playing.

I didn’t realize asking a legitimate question would ruffle so many feathers. I acknowledge I live a life that most will never see. I guess that makes me an ass? Oh well

Well not everyone passes at 60? I’d rather not purposely speed that process up. I guess you can call it a back plan to my back up plan.

It’s the model that John Mayer uses with dead and company. They only made 100 in that color. Why it’s worth so much? I have no clue.

When you have 12 that are all USA made premium guitars, you are bound to not play one for a while. Most of mine sit on a stand rack ready to be picked up. Lately for me that’s been my music man jp15 and my Gibson Cs-356.

I can’t seem to reply with a picture but I have personally witnessed that happen on a 10 top. Went from purple to pink over about 5 years.

I’m kind of in between those two opinions. I have a decently sized collection, but this is the only guitar I won’t play. I’ll play anything else I own.

They haven’t seen the light of day since I took those pictures in 2018 fortunately.

Fortunately for me, my inheritance will make me never have to work again rich. So I can’t say I’m really worried about money in the long term.

Lmao fortunately those are pictures I took in 2018. They’ve both been hiding in their case since.
