Why did I think you were looking for a Model T with a Rosewood board?

Yep I'm not a fan of the off center blocks. And I already have enough maple boards on the family!
So yeah any color goes as long as it has a rosewood board.
IDK if they ever made any other color but I only have seen the butterscotch that I'm not too crazy about either. But works for me!
At this time of year we can call it "egg nog" instead of butterscotch!

Nice! I love egg nog. I was just telling my friend the other day that I am excited about having some again. It's so rich and heavy that I can drink it for a meal.

I am absolutely a Maple guy. The only time I prefer anything else is for a pure white bass to have a super-dark fretboard (and black hardware).

Paulo, don't take my word for it but check it out: I believe the pups or electronics are not the same between the new T (the one with the block inlays) and the 'older' version, the one pictured in butterscotch with no block inlays...

Indeed. Old: passive SD SPB-2 / SJB-2. New: EMG 18v active w/ 2-band EQ.

Thanks Yolly and Tim!
At this point it doesn't matter, as long as it sounds good.
If not, I can always upgrade the electronics.
I prefer not to of course! :)

I have one. Near mint, still has the plastic on the pickguard. I had just purchased it and was about to put some flatwounds on it when I had my accident, so I've never even played it. (Of course I'll put the original strings back on):

Score!

Having watched the video Paulo posted above, I definitely prefer the tone of these old passive models (even though I think the new model looks cooler).
