Anyone know much about these?
I'd never heard of them until this week.

Looks like they'd be right up Roo's street... :)

They do look very unique, finishing wise anyway!

Joe Bonammanaanassaanammaaassaannaama uses a T one often and gets a great tone out of it and occasionaly an S style too.

I don't think gay is an appropriate description of that guitar, because frankly that's offensive to homosexuals. In fact, that guitar is offensive to pretty much everyone (whether they realise it or not).
Shame, really, because I'm all for up-and-coming guitar makers ;)

notice also that USA custom guitars (a company like warmoth) do most of the work... not really got a problem with that especially since they are so honest about it... but it does explain why they are only strat and tele shapes... and since they dont do finishes (neither do I), it leaves me wondering what they do do

then i went to the construction page and saw

tbh i quite like them... but not as much as a trussart

They look like they've photoshopped the guitars on the site to all hell and back. Thus I dont trust them

Here is a vid of Bonamassa playing his if you prefer to see a real one?

I like them but no way I'd pay that money for one, especially when (as mentioned by Wez) you could get a Trussart instead.

I saw Joe Bonamassa play one 2 weeks ago. He used it for slide and I think the metal finish suited the slide playing.
It had been bugging me for a while as to what it was.
I'm unsure of them but it's good to see something a little different

My girlfriend says this relentlessly. At least it's Kaleigh she fancies though.
