True, but classical guitars are constructed in a completely different way than a Hufschmid. Playing a classical guitar with the idea that its flat radius fingerboard will feel the same as an electric with a flat radius would be like playing a 4 string banjo with the idea that because it has 4...
Yeah, I think I'd go for Oni too. Originally it was Hufschmid for me, but after sending him 2 emails he told me to stop emailing him and give him a call to figure every little detail out. That's all and well, but I live in Canada, so $50 on a phone call for a theoretical guitar just wasn't the...

Hi, I'm looking at getting a custom 7 - 8 string guitar and came across Blackmachine and Blackdroid. They look awesome, but I don't have much of an idea about how much their guitars cost, or how long their waiting lists are - suggestions from people with experience with Blackdroid or...
