If I may ask... what's the price range on these? I couldn't find quotes anywhere. I'm prospect shopping for a barebones metal machine but I dislike wizard-type necks (thin and wide) in favor of chunkier, narrow necks (think musicman).

I also see that the B2 has a 42mm nut width while the B6 has a 43... I'm assuming that's customizable too?
Thanks!

You can see some quotes on the facebookpage, the B6 go for around 2500£ ish, and the only thing that is customizable is the pickups.

The neck is thin but not wizard-thin, you should try one, they are really comfy.

Unfortunately that is not really feasible, I live in one of the smallest countries in continental Europe! Very limited selection here...

Had Doug(Blackmachine) over for dinner on Friday and he brought over one of his B2s so we took a joint photo of our own guitars

Yes it's somewhere between a flame top and a quilt and the colour is great



Just ordered another set of Mules I want to try again in there - I keep going back and forth between Vintage and contemporary pickups

it's a joy to stare at those pics! What camera did you use to take the photos?

I don't know what Palle who has the B6 used

My own pictures were taken with a Sony A580 with a 35mm lens (and two Profoto D1 strobe lights fitted with 4'x1' softboxes fitted with grids on the front and maybe a silver reflector to bounce a bit of light back in too.

I don't alter anything drastically in Photoshop or anything as I prefer to show things as they look to the eye, however I may correct exposure if they come out a bit bright or dark and add a little sharpness to the picture.
