                        <content:encoded><![CDATA[There's this magical MIM strat in Strait Music(in Austin) that I've been dying to buy, and it has a rosewood fingerboard. To tell you the truth, nobody can tell you which is better, it's truly a personal prefrence. Hendrix used both rosewood, and maple. Clapton now almost exclusively uses maple. SRV's #1 was rosewood. Muddy Waters Tele was rosewood. It differs. :)]]></content:encoded>

                        <content:encoded><![CDATA[One most little twist to the question.................For the Strat, maple or rosewood fretboard? I'm thinking maybe I'd like the maple. Everyone seems to have the rosewood. Personally on my Guild I have ebony.

My Strat has the one-piece maple neck, and I think it's more pleasing to the eye than the rosewood fretboard on a lot of models. Again, it's personal preference. I couldn't hear a difference playing the two different types myself, just ended up liking the look of the maple better. It offsets the sunburst body nicely. :)<br><br>-Rick]]></content:encoded>

                        <content:encoded><![CDATA[tinsmith<br><br>Yeah, I went looking for a Les Paul Studio about a month a ago. I also looked at the SG's in that range. I couldn't believe how bad they were. My younger brother owned an SG back in the early 70's, so I know what these guitars once were. They were awesome at that time. I'm sorry, but my Squier Tele ($200) is made much better than these Gibsons I looked at. I ended up walking out with an American Telecaster. Now it is nice! Flawless. I love it. And $300 less than the Gibsons I was looking at. <br><br>I like those Washburn WI-64s that Bob Squires mentioned. Those look like fantastic guitars for a great price. Very SG. <br><br>Another great guitar for a low price is Schecter. I have played those and they are nice. Super necks and the coil taps. Sounded great.<br><br><a href="http://www.music123.com/Washburn-WI64-i83497.music">Washburn WI64</a>]]></content:encoded>
