Nah, while that guy was loud and obnoxious, there are more than enough examples of solars(not washburns) with severe cracking in the ebony boards.

Wouldn't be too hard to find more examples.
Makes me more than happy to love rosewood haha
I stand corrected!
I'd still wager on a Solar B stock as long as it didn't have these kinds of cracks as an issue. Been tempted to get one of their $599 B stocks but after currency conversion, shipping, and duties it's never worth it.
