I have checked them out a few times. I would love to get my hands on one. They seem kind of like those Zacharys, only they look cool and he isn't a douche

(J/K guys, c'mon)

Those are cool, love the headstocks!

Eco · #5 05-23-2007, 07:48 AM

Now those i like, but i wonder if the headstock would snap off after a while :$

I agree slayer, if he could do floating trems I might grab one and piezo would be superb

they're awesome guitars. I had a go when I was at the London Guitar Show a couple of years back. I think he is looking at putting locking trems on at some point, pretty sure it says so on the website actually...though I may have it the wrong way round and he isn't

He's a very helpful guy, just drop him an email.

he says hes having trouble with the sustain block... its too long for his guitars, but hes working on it.

the 884 looks pretty interesting!!!

the headstock kinda has a gothic Parker vibe to it!!!

if you click the 884 or whatever it´s called, the fanned fret one, you can read about why the floyd guitar is so delayed, it was because he was working pretty hard on that guitar... so yeah, it´s coming...

I had a go on Clive's Black Machine a few years back and it was a very cool solid guitar.
Felt a bit like an S as it's unnaturally thin but it was very light.

I felt it was a bit too dear for what it was though.

I really like their shape. I'm 100% sure if I like or hate the headstock.
I would love to have the 7 or the 8-string (in this case I think I wouldn't even notice the headstock).

I must say that I'm looking for a non-tremolo 7-string, so it doesn't bother me if he doesn't get floating trems anytime soon!
