I really wanted a seven-string guitar after building Karan’s 7. This urge was so bad that I designed a new body and headstock shape just to justify building myself a guitar. Weirdly enough, I build myself an instrument every 4-5 years. I challenge myself to make a milestone build as a personal...
This is the first time I'm posting both the Build Thread AND the NGD. I figured that i'd show the progress of my own personal 7 string build here and will post the NGD in the Members area of this thread and the NGD section of the Sevenstring main area.
I really wanted a seven-string guitar...
What's up guys? Figured since we're gonna have Adam on our next episode, I'd drop in one of his hybrids and record a clip. Just threw this pickup into my main guitar and man, This pickup is THICC. I've included a DI as well as solo guitars in the dropbox link if you guys wanna run it through...
*Mods, if this isn't cool for whatever reason, just lemme know and delete the thread*
Hey guys!
I started a Shop talk Podcast with Kris Yates of Mobius Guitars (@Silence2-38554 ). I've wanted to do this for a few years and thanks to Kris, finally got the motivation to do so. I figured I'd drop...
Its been a hell of a long time since i've posted here but I just finished my Internal Medicine Boards and finally get to take this guitar through its paces. Shot a few pictures and made a few clips on SoundCloud for everyone to listen to.
Specs:
Roasted Maple Top/ Mahogany Back

I'm back!
I've been demoing this pickup out for a few weeks in my personal Buckeye Burl build and I'm finding it difficult to take out and try the other hybrid I had Adam send me too. As the name suggests its a hybrid wind bridge pickup made from a coil of his Trident I and II. I've tried this...
See my NGD for this guitar here!
Ok, So I recently posted my NGD on this White Paradox 6 String by Hinnant Guitars. What I'd like to show you guys is the set of pickups that Adam from @ElysianGuitars wound for me and show you some clips and give some DI's so you all can get a feel for their...
Hey guys
I think this is my first NGD that isn't a completed build of my own. This is actually the first guitar that I've purchased made by another luthier. This is a guitar made by Michael Hinnant of Hinnant Guitars. I'd been following him on Instagram for a while and have admired his builds...
Hey guys!
I'd preordered the Shaper Origin a year or two ago and started using it this past year since I had more time. Built a small mini guitar with it as a test for a friend (posted in the Guitars built by forum members) and a few people from the company came down to film a small video of me...
Alright guys its that time again. I've just completed my first playable Multiscale and shes all mine as i head to chicago to start my Internal Medicine Residency. Since i wont be building or buying anything for a while this is really my last NGD before i go on hiatus from the lutherie world...
Ive wanted to make a good fanned fret guitar since my first one attempted almost three years ago (check the earliest of entries in my blog....oh man was that bad). Man has time flew. Anyways with more experience under my belt and some guidance from some of the great friends and builders Ive...
Ok so I was building this alongside my burl maple guitar and never really made a build thread for it except for what was on my blog. too much cross posting to deal with. Since i'd posted some builds before I took a break and decided i'd pic dump the NGD.
Here you go guys.

Figured...
So you guys have seen some of my builds over the years and my goal has been to outdo myself each time. This time im going big and going for dual exotic builds with the woods i've been saving up until i was satisfied with my own building skills.
As per usual, these will be super picture heavy...
Hello everyone.
I set out last year to build a singlecut with this awesome burl I bought at a lumber yard in Santa Ana. Since then there were periods of fast progress and some long ass hiatuses. I'd been taking the last of my boards necessary for application to medical residency's and most...
Ok so a while ago i did a demo featuring the Titans which i love. Those pickups are going into the burl maple build i have going in the luthery section.
I also bought a set of Dominions at Nick from the Axe Palace's Suggestion for my roasted maple build. And man im excited because these are...
Alright guys, i just wanna thank everyone who's been following the thread and blog progress.

Alright guys Im starting this thread because I intend to finish this guitar fairly soon. I've already made the body and am making the neck as we speak. I'll transfer over some pics from my blog for the reason that if i have some questions, i can just post it here!

Here's what a 26scale redwood semi hollow tuned to F# (just for this demo) sounds like. im using a 52 on the low F# surprisingly stayed in tune and tension was great.
