Re: Cool 8 string from Mike Sherman


It looks cool, best 8 I've seen yet, but I'd like it better as a 6.

Re: Cool 8 string from Mike Sherman


Mike Sherman's work can only be described as extrodinary. (sp?) The guy is a master at his work. He's on sevenstring.org a lot and there are a lot of his builds on there. His "bison" build is absolutely stunning.
