Hello everyone!
I wanted showcase this Blackmachine B2 inspired custom 7-string built by a Finnish luthier Juho Manninen. I’d been dreaming of a Blackmachine since 2007 and had contacted several luthiers/manufacturers throughout the years about building something like this. Many declined to...
After a year of waiting, I got my Skervesen Raptor clone delivered to me. The thing is masterfully crafted and is virtually flawless. It may as well be one of the best guitars I've ever played.
The only problem is that I never played a Blackmachine or Raptor body styled guitar before ordering...

Hey All,
Really interested in trying to put together my own blackmachine-esque type of guitar. I should mention that I am not 100% married to the blackmachine shape, but I am looking for a thin bodied double cut. I unfortunately live in a small apartment without the tools necessary to make the...

Time has come for me to depart this chugmachine. My new guitar has arrived and I had to make this tough decision as money needs to be spent elsewhere at the moment. I really love this instrument for it´s highly comfy playability, monsterous huge sound, beautiful natural looks and precise...
2013 Blackmachine B6 just arrived in the mail. I've been wanting one for 10 years and finally had the chance to scoop one up. She joins some good company!
As far as playing, it is excellent! Fast neck, each note rings out clearly through distortion, super lightweight, very comfortable to play...
So, I took a chance and ordered one just before christmas. It arrived midway through january and besides needing a bit of a setup seems pretty decent for the money. It sounds pretty good (better than my Strandberg ever did for sure), and besides the rather chunky neck it actually plays pretty...
I have a question regarding CITIES policy and how to get a certificate.
1.) Has anybody experience with shipping from Europe to the United States?
2.) How do you get a certificate if you just have a guitar without many documents - only a speclist.
My problem is that I have a custom made...

This just showed up on Craigslist today. I'm not in the market for another 7 string at the moment but wanted to spread the word about this one. The price seems ridiculously low. I'm wondering if this is a fake or if the seller is just unaware of Doug's instruments. :scratch: Have a look and...

I ordered this guitar in June and got it about two weeks ago, but I didn't want to upload an NGD before I had spent some time with it, and as I sold my Mesa cab three days later, I could only play it through BIAS until I got my new Zilla Fatboy (which will have it's own thread soon).
I am...
I stumbled across this on Facebook. It's our currently absent forum member Leanoardo7 aka Alain. It's worth sharing because of the lack of Orthos clips out there, other than a couple awesome ones on here. I can't get enough of hearing this thing. Damn. And with a B7? Not even fair.

Quick question, why is it that 98% of people buy Ran guitars in a natural oiled finish? Are they better than their lacquered counterparts?
Mishas Ran:
But most of them just look like this, I am curious as to why this is the case.
