    Yet Another Corvette.

    So, idle hands got the best of me again and I ran across an FNA that piqued my interest on Dallas Craigslist(I'm in Austin). A few text messages and a paypal invoice later it was en-route.

    When And Why Did Warwick Changed From Wenge To Ovangkol Necks?

    I already play a Warwick Corvette $$ with an ovangkol neck and i actually like also the wenge neck of the Fortess I sold. When did Warwick changed it and why? I already searched for the answer but could not find it. Was it because of money or for any technical reason?
