Nice one! Question: don't you miss the wood-feeling when you play it?
That's my question as well. I know with the older Kramer Aluminums you could get frostbite if you touched the neck in cold temperatures, and it wouldn't play in tune either. Are these necks temperamental to temperature changes too?
I expected it to feel more foreign to play but after a minute you forget it's made of metal. Probably like playing a graphite neck bass.
It does get colder to the touch when you first pick it up if the room is cold, but it doesn't get affected by temperature any more than wood neck instruments. I know the Kramers were infamous for being prone to temperature change, but that's something EGC make a point to mention that theirs differ from the old ones on.
The body is also aluminum, and hollow, so it's pretty loud unplugged too.
