Yeah I was really interested until I found out that a 'resinator' fingerboard acctually meant that it was made from resin rather than wood, that put me off a little. The TVL seems like a good bet but I'd have to find one and play it first, just to be sure (not having owned a gibson-style guitar for donkeys the neck shape/size will probably be a big factor for me)
