Its a Ged Green logo Two reasons: if I lean the guitar against something (although I'll never have it without a stand), it wont fall down easily, and secondly it gives me some options length wise (I like the guitar pretty high) Yeah had to buy two packs, but its lucky because I now have...

Thanks for all the comments! I love walnut - as is mentioned around the net, it has a nice mahogany sound to it, possibly with a little more bass, especially using a clean channel. When single coiled, it also produces a nice twang sound. Definitely a very guitar-friendly wood, not just for...

I post a making-of thread here: http://www.sevenstring.org/forum/luthiery-modifications-and-customizations/98467-custom-8-string-all-walnut.html Ged Green Manchester luthier and guitar bass instrument maker and repairer: HOME Here is my completely custom 8 string made by Ged Green from...

just received 3 new pics - picking it up Saturday (fingers crossed)

ah! Didnt realize anyone else from that area knew what an extended range guitar was :p

Thanks guys! :agreed: I'm unbelievably happy with its progress, and can't wait to get my hands on it! I don't think I can ever look at a painted guitar the same way ever again - just not in the same class. As to the fretboard being covered - fretboards should not have a finish on them! They are...

new pic! it'll be finished in a week or so, one more coat to go then on to buffering! (dont worry fretboard was covered, just peeled off for the picture) i'll also be posting better higher-resolution pictures tomorrow once i get them from Ged - this one was just with my camera phone!

hey thanks man! i probably wont record a video of my playing it (as everyone else does), but ill be sure to take a lot of pictures. ill use it for recording eventually too :)

hey thanks man, only just looked at this! i probably wont post a video playing it as everyone else does, but ill defo. take loads of pics :)

+1 shogunate. I hate painted guitars. natural all the way :yesway:

Wow love it! Especially the Holdsworth headstock! Do you prefer the Ibanez 8 string or wish you still had the Carvin?

Yeah, would have still been nice to have the extra tonal option, but oh well :) I'll still have a coil splitter for the bridge pickup though.

quite disappointed with the latest pics, dont do it justice. still some sanding to do then the multiple finishes will be applied - gloss the entire body, then rub down the neck so it has a matte/satin feel and look.

Here are some more pics. Used my camera phone, isnt very good - guitar should be finished within the month though, at which point ill use a professional camera to take the pictures :shred:

I've never ordered an Agile, but when I bought my 7 string and got it sent over from America, I paid about 1/3 of the price of the guitar in taxes just to get it into the country. Luckily the guitar was worth it, but something to keep in mind!

its a baritone acoustic, that's why (tuned lower than a standard guitar)

you could probably find a cheap 8 string floyd clone somewhere. I think Floyd Rose will soon release their own 8 string floyd anyway.

new pic :)

If that didn't say Ibanez on the headstock, I wouldn't have guessed it was an Ibanez guitar. Nice body shape. The top fret access looks good too, especially if you have big hands

I already have a solid walnut guitar and love it. Sitting or standing. Walnut varies in weight, and the piece this guitar is made out of isnt too bad.
