Was thinking of taking the plunge and ordering a custom-spec'd Dunable. The reviews I've read and the vids I've watched all seem good. The price I was quoted was kind of steep, but I really don't mind paying more if it'll get me what I want. Anyways, anyone here own one? Played one? If so, what are your thoughts on them?

Dunable makes great guitars. Very "worn in vintage" feel, definitely not shredder neck profiles, but not baseball bat thick either. Ive had hands on 10-12 of them thus far and have been consistently impressed, and I've seen first hand how good his customer service is as well. Definitely order with confidence.

One life, bro.

Keep what you love, sell what you like. Move whatever doesn't bring you joy to get the Dunable.

I see a feedback loop here, what if the dunable doesn't bring joy?

Kidding aside, they spec some nice guitars. So keep us updated.

Because they don't make any production 7 string baritones. ;)

If they have a non bari 7, try that first? It will give you a pretty good idea if it will be what you're after.

Does he do custom neck profiles? Profile is almost always the most important part.

They're on my short list for a 6 string. I love the NF series they occasionally put out.

I've got 3 of em. A Cyclops, a R2 and a Yeti. I have a second Yeti but with a baritone neck that I just ordered. The neck profiles on all of em are different. The Cyclops is a modern C shape. The R2 is a D shape, more like Jackson. The Yeti I ordered with a soft V shape as thats my preferred shape(and its much, much thicker than the other two). They are great guitars and they really take a beating. They also sound really good, which helps lol

That "vintage" feel is exactly what's been drawing me to them as of late. They just give off this doom/Masters of Reality feel.

Also, thanks for the heads up about their customer service. Hopefully, I'll never need it, but it's good to know they stand behind their guitars.

I had some quality time with an off-the-shelf Yeti a year or so ago, great guitar. Had a vintage-feeling oil finish that was very resonant and comfortable to play. Neck felt similar to the Fender Modern C or PRS Pattern Thin, IMO. Frets and fretboard were immaculate as well. Would definitely go for it.

So much for my interest.
