This is the Micarta fretboard and bridge version.
Micarta looks and feels like slate floor tiles.
SO happy I got the rosewood OOOM-15.

Double-click and zoom , the top is a nicely figured mahogany

no charge for the foot

I've tried all kinds of different fretboards and I can never feel any difference. Must need softer finger tips I guess. The only thing that I can feel is the action and nut width and the fret sizes. Basically, how easy it is to play for me or not.

I wasn't correcting you or anything, I really was just saying that "I" can't feel the difference. I have very hard and dry skin on my fingers, especially the tips, and not just from guitar playing. It's cuz of a skin condition. I was just pointing that out. Some tablets and phones won't even respond to my touch either cuz of this.

Kinda sucks sometimes. Trying to type on any laptop for me is a nightmare because the keys are so easy or light or whatever that I can't really feel them and this causes me to make typos galore on laptops.

lol. Just one of those things I gotta live with.

iv noticed that most women dotn have a problem readin my nerve damagaed typing...I think i has to do with genetic predispostion to understand baby talk.. ¤Jun/26/03¤

just a few
I reverse key often, esp space and first or last letter of word
I also have a issue with where my mind thinks my hand is, ending up with one hand typing all its letter one key over..

then there's senility, typing the wrong word entirely!
