Well Dez you know what I think about your axes, hehe. Awesome pics. I'd have to say my fave is the Mahog, it's beautiful!

I haven't played "metal" since I was twenty.

And Blackmachine Guitars make me want to play metal...

Steady there, Mark.  Go make yourself a nice cup of tea.

I just love them.

The understated look. The superb sound and playability. The ultimate guitars imo, Doug's taken ideas that Parker and the like have had, and perfected them. Truly awesome.

A hairband, great to keep those tapping licks sounding clean ;P

More to stop the strings ringing out from behind the nut in this case though. It's an inherent problem with reverse headstock guitars.

You really have de-grubbified your B2 a fair bit, good to see the brothers out in sunlight.

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!

 :lol: :lol:

I don't want to be the lone dissenting voice... I'm sure they're wonderfully made but Blackmachines don't do anything for me at all, except for the beautiful but subtle look of the timbers.

Glad everyone else likes them though.

Build-wise, they are reverse way that I go on MY guitars... I like fat neck and don't care too much about weight (I'm about 290lb :lol:), but they look very well built with nice woods, I like the look... If I ever ask for Doug build a guitar to me, the neck would be alike 1" thick :lol:
