Post by: hieronymous on September 09, 2016, 10:25:28 AM

I don't usually look at reverb.com but yesterday I spotted this:

Looks like Signature electronics?

Don't think I have ever seen an Exploiter in cocobolo, looks nice.

Good point - I didn't really think about that, I think I've seen one or two but the vast majority seem to be maple.

That would be awesome! I had an Exploiter, but since I wasn't playing out I ended up selling it. They were made to be played on stage!

Gorgeous, but it has to weigh a ton!
