My blackmachines and I
« on: October 27, 2008, 01:13:56 PM »
Had my B6 for a little while now, coming over to a month, and no pics or vids. I've just been tattoo'ed so no playing for a little bit, as my arms are quite sticky/scabby/painful but will hopefully have a video up soon enough.

First pics are of my single piece quilted mahogany B2 with ceramic warpigs. The second pics are of my swamp ash B6 with painkillers.

Enjoy!

The ultimate question:

Which do you like better?
"Would you like some lemon oil?"
"Oh, no thanks, I don't eat fruit."

That figured Mahogany is beautiful.  Isn't it a snakewood board too?

Cheers guys! Glad you are digging them.

I have to say its hard to decide which is my fav. The ash one is going to be great for live use, as its so light and great tone, playablity etc, while the one with the snakewood board(correctly pointed out) means more to me, and I dont really want anything bad happening to it. They both play great, sound great, just kind of different. Purely on how long Ive had it, I would have to go with the mahogany one.

Blackmachines are the only quilted/posh guitars I would ever consider owning, they just look so good :) Quality, rather than cheap tacky quilt.

yeah they look nice... but what we really need is a photo of the mahogany one in front of your door - preferably with the house number nice and visable... and if you could just walk down the street and get a photo of the ash one next to your street sign that would be great.   Cheers!

Beautiful guitars but I am not sure what to make of the headstocks. I am more of a traditionalist, but there is something inherently wicked about those! :D
