How much, on average, would a Rogue with the following specs cost: 36" scale 5 String tuned E-A-D-G-C Sidelines fretless Green side L.E.D's Standard Rogue body shape with Omega Cutout (if possible with extra-long scale) Maple core with ebony accents Mahogany wings Ebony laminates on top and back Redwood Burl top and back Standard electronics Continuous wood backplates and truss rod cover Crown headstock Recessed silver logo with shell and rays Polished Brass hardware Bird Tailpiece (I'd like to have a Dragon inlay...but thats, what, $8000?) I'm only asking in here rather than using the online quote system just in case theire might be some innaccuracies in the quote form and to include the prices of ebony laminates. valvil Moderator Username: valvil Post Number: 547 Registered: 7-2002 Posted on Thursday, September 30, 2004 - 1:40 pm:    Hello Chris, your list is a little confusing in a couple of parts. Where you list "maple core with ebony accents" and then below that "mahogany wings"; the "body wings" or the "core" are terms we use for the same thing. So your bass would have either a maple core or a mahogany core. I also wondered if maybe by "maple core with ebony accents" you were referring to the neck materials. You list Ebony laminates for top and back as well as Redwood Burl top and back. Do you mean that you'd like for the bass to have a top and back of redwood burl and 2 Ebony laminates between the top & back and the core?

Basically, I want a maple neck with ebony laminates in, the basic neck model thats on the custom quote order form. But instead of then having the wings (the pieces of wood stuck to the sides of the neck) made of maple as well, I'd like them to be mahogany. Probably that means a mahogany body. 2. And as for the ebony laminates, yes thats exactly what i mean. I hope i've cleared anything up.
