Indian Rosewood v Caribbean Rosewood

Post by SCAD »

HI,

I'm about to place my order for a USA Legacy, but I've been told that the eta for a model with an Indian Rosewood fretboard (to the UK) would be up to 14 weeks!!

I've been told that it will be a lot quicker (and cheaper) if I go with a Caribbean Rosewood fretboard, due to CITES.

My question to owners of both Legacy fretboard types is: Is there any noticeable difference in feel and sound between Indian and Caribbean Rosewood?

I have the same question. My gut tells me to wait for the Indian.
