And they have a model called the "Ratrod".Any connection?Is it a signature model you have been quiet about?Nice girls as well.

$500 US - thats very cheap
£300 - cheaper than an EPI or whatever

Sorry, no connection. (Maybe I should lie and say it IS my signature guitar :twisted: )

If my rockabilly band gets going, I might just get me a custom made Big Daddy with some dog ear P90's for only about $1000.-, the stock P90's will be swapped for BKP's off course.

I quite fancy that Rat Rod with the maltese cross pintriping as well. That should sound ace with a set of hot rodded MQ's.

Hmmm they look nice, and the guitars look allright as well.

Nice Sg style ones too

I'm not a LP person but some of them certainly look nice (especially maltese cross graphic.)

So what do they play like (resists the cheap joke for once)

I'd like a Twangmaster or a Ratrod, complete with girls. :D

They'll be at the upsoming NAMM show. One or two will be there too, I know Feline will.

Maybe Jon could test one.

Mmmm nice looking guitars. A Big Daddy with Bigsby and Mississippi Queens would do nicely come to think of it. Would be nice to know how well they played.

Now I'm going to have to order that BKP for my lap steel this afternoon to take my mind of the Sparrow GAS. Cheers Ratty :p

I like the guitars, but not the paint jobs.

I'm sorry, yu get a Canadian hand made guitar, with real mahogany body and neck, with maple cap, with real hardware, and with custom paint, set neck, etc. for $500??? where's the catch? i can't find it. all i know is I'M HAVING ONE.

Their build-your-own custom guitar bit is better than Gibson's. Good guitars, as well.

Most of the guitar is made in the far east, the build off is Canadian.
