Idk, I just checked the App Store and if you sort reviews as most recent they are almost all 1 star

That is sad, I did enjoy some follow ups, the drama was a good read even if it was someone’s creative writing practice. I truly appreciated seeing skills grow. I followed a few craft/hobby subs; sometimes someone would ask a very novice question and end up posting incredible work a few months later. Don’t get me wrong, I hate reddit- especially now, but there were some good, helpful communities

AMAs died when Reddit fired Victoria, they haven’t been worth a shit in a while.

Yea, I didn’t know that until I checked their about page. I had no idea.

I too am curious. It would also be insightful to see where the real OC comes from, I would think most casual users browsing and occasionally commenting would be on the official app. Where the users who contribute popular, useful content are likely on a 3rd party app and/or pc

That is a hot ass guitar. Not a big tele fan usually, but that color combo is downright sexy. Congrats on the new addition!

I’m slowly getting back into playing, but I’m also a somewhat serious woodworker. Just my thoughts but I like what I’ve seen in the “roasted” variety. I’ll look into it but idk about the roasting process, in woodworking burning or charring wood was traditionally done to make the wood more resistant to moisture and insects. Today it is almost entirely aesthetic. There is a technique called ammoniatization where chemical gasses are used to tint wood, it’s very attractive especially with oak. Given it’s a quality brand and the neck itself is structurally sound I think it’s an aesthetic choice. Usually fretboards are lacquered or otherwise sealed/coated. I’d say playing both and getting the one that speaks to you and feels best is the way to go
