This also makes me wonder if a homestead can be ordered “thicker” for an up charge? Any idea? Baz, I think you said body shape on five string is different from Homestead and Oreo? I have impression Homestead and Oreo have same body shape! I think Oreo has option of cutaway. I’m not sure that Homestead is offered in cutaway. I think Bonanza is offering good value at fair price. I like local wood offerings. I don’t know much about aspen as a tone wood but have a black walnut/spruce custom Tenor I really like. A lot of people like cherry wood. It’s kinda cool it darkens with age.
Initially, I was thrown off with the volume of Oreo and Homestead. I don’t play with amps so it has to be acoustically good sounding for me.
Corian net is interesting. In my case if I got one and didn’t like it I could always get a TUSQ nut made.
Great info in this thread.
