Title: New BlackMachine Range?

"new series of guitars"
"more affordable package"
Sounds good to me! I've been dying for a blackmachine for so long, but never had anything near the money for one; hopefully i'll be able to own one sometime soon. Hope this doesnt mean any sacrifice of quality however...

Knowing Doug he wouldn't drop the quality.

Apparently he's opening a factory to build them to lower standard specs.

Probably due to having way too many orders in recently for him to ever catch up.

+1 - It looks like he built the guitar and was working his way up, and got to the headstock like "shite - I've run out of wood!" :P

The headstocks look great, i think :) Good news about a cheaper line of instruments, i may be able to afford one at some point.

I like the headstocks too - there are more than enough Fender headstocks in this world already.

Those Blackmachine guitars are awesome to play as well, top notch workmanship.  I played his stuff side-by-side with an EXPENSIVE PRS he'd took in on a part-ex and we both agreed it sounded like ass.
