Cobra TM2

[BFC]

Just for fun and I'm curious... Tom, have you ever had anyone order a TM2 or 3 in the bridge position of a Cobra? Something I've never seen before.

I made one for myself years ago. I ended up changing the neck from mahogany to maple and enjoyed it more. So it ended up being a short t.

I like it.

Was the fretboard maple too?

[tom]

yes it was. for whatever reason, for quite some time i have either had all maple necks or mahogany with rosewood. i guess i like the extremes they bring. i'm either going for the squish of the mahogany or going all the way to the clarity of the maple. right now i'm all maple with alder bodies, but since there's always so much to try here, that can change fairly quickly. this past year it has been that wood combo with pq or ph pickups.

So this guitar in question was basically a cobra with tm2 in bridge and an all maple neck/board?:eek: Can I have it? :D There is something about an all maple neck/board that I just love over mixing woods for neck/fret board.

I played a Gibson once that had a mahogany neck with maple fretboard. Strange to see but I enjoyed it

i've actually done just about all the body wood, scale, pickup and neck wood combinations.
that cobra with a maple neck would be what we call a short drop t now.
