Not laurel


This is stated at Swee Lee's website. Laurel is one of the current popular substitutes for rosewood. It's a straight-grained, porous wood type with a brown hue. As depicted above, that's clearly not a laurel fretboard.


To be fair to this oversight, both Cutlass versions are featured at SL's webpage, it's quite the case of a duplicate spec sheet. Why am I putting this under the microscope? I'm asking you to exercise due care when buying something online especially if there is a probability of not getting what you clicked for. We understand that some stores are bound by their exchange policy & getting your issues addressed is a little tricky. Nothing personal against SL here, it's an oversight that can be attended to quickly.
