Love it, or Hate it ? (wood trim)


Well, actually not quite that strong!

I'm talking about wood trim on amps or preamps? Some of the wood appears to be quite beautiful, but I think that it looks "wrong" and I dislike wood trim! I'm taking an informal poll:

Hate= Would NEVER own with wood trim
Dislike= Would prefer no wood trim
Neutral= I could care less
Like= Would prefer wood trim
Love= MUST have wood trim

Also, if you live outside of the USA, would you please indicate so and your country, [if you feel comfortable giving this info]?

I'm just curious about preferences, and also to see if they vary in other countries!

"Resin-infused Cherry"?!?! Isn't that just a fancy way of saying "plastic wood"?
jax2 - could be, but the 'resin' may be some kind of glue-like substance used to reduce any resonant vibration tendencies of untreated wood...just a total guess, however.
Cold the resin be Cyanoacylate? CA is a very,very thin adhesive that is used to hardan and stabilize wood.
Normally I'd say that i'm ambivolent in this....... but I've had my A-08s a couple of months now and it is a thing of beauty. Gotta Love that cherry wood.
Hate is my vote as well. My JOR has black wood sideing, an exception. But these pres/small intergrated tube amps with wood trim gives me a impression of cheap/gimick.
