    Boden Original 8 (MII, 2018) vs Original NX 8 (2023)

    Back in 2016-2018 I had a few Boden Original (MII) 6 string guitars. I really liked them! Currently I'm looking for an 8 string Boden Original. Locally, I have an offer for a used MII 2018 Original natural for about 2k EUR. I was wondering how much "better" or different the current production...

    NGD: Jim Root Stratocaster – The Black One!

    Since my last NGD wasn’t as pleasant as I wished (http://sevenstring.org/threads/skervesen-skervesix-ngd-build-experience-and-first-impressions.325185/), I gave myself to the dark side (literally), submitted to my GAS, and got a new guitar to fill the void. Note: The finish is great, but also...

    Skervesen SkerveSIX - NGD, build experience and first impressions

    Disclaimer I want to make clear that I’m not bashing on Skervesen (from here on also referred to as “they”). The guitar looks good, plays well and sounds great. This is my second build and the first one was, besides some minor cosmetic inconsistencies, flawless and well designed. I love their...

    NGD: LTD AL600 - That's a Viper, alright!

    I just wanted to share my latest acquisition with you guys. I wanted a Viper for a long time, I always liked the look of the slanted SG shape. But all the one's I've played had a fairly thick body, nearly as thick as a LP. And since I like SG style guitars for their comparably light weight, I...

    Warrior Overhaul - Oil and Chrome!

    So, this is the most severe modification I've done until now. Besides the wood, only the nut and frets remain original. Originally this was a JS32T NO which the previous owner had modified partly. The condition of the body was horrendous though. The body had been dyed and oiled. The wood had...

    JP6 - How much to pay used?

    I've found a JP6 in white (I'm not sure about the exact name of the color, it's this vintage white, nearly beige) that is supposedly in great condition. It has the Piezo system, no shield inlays, and a white nut (I guess this are not compensated then). I've looked around a lot, depending on the...
