    I don't think so. Some of the pics online are deceiving. Believe the 6 string version have ebony bridge. But as for the rosewood, it can change in color/depth based on if it has been conditioned or not.

    No. I used F-one oil. It worked great, my rosewood bridge was a very light dry color, I added the F-one and it's not dark and rich looking, like the wood surrounding the airhole. I can't recall if it did the same issue when I had my bronze strings on.... Though my input jack is giving me so...

    So finally cleaned up my Vietnam made Alien last night. Cleaned the brass frets, oiled the fretboard, and swapped out the bronze roundwound strings for some Black Diamond Jazz flatwound.

    Has anyone else changed the hardware on their alien? I see above someone swapped to black. Im thinking of golf with wenge or rosewood tuners. Not sure if I want the tuners to match the fingerboard or the bridge area and wood surrounding the hole.
