i'm noticing on all these promo shots you don't have the intonation set, do you do that after you take pictures or something?

 

[Snorelax]

+1 on the great work, Patrick

I have been wanting one of your guitars ever since I stumbled across your website over a year ago

Edit #2: or were you talking about the one with the kahler?

Man, your work is fucking gorgeous. I highly approve, and if you're still around when I've got the moolah for a custom, I'm getting it from you. \m/

This guitar is hot ... ... are the pickups made by yourself also? Are they for sale?

Thanks!

Thanks!

thank you
i designed the pickups and my friend Kent Armstrong builds them by hand for me... so what is very cool is that we can custom build the pickups to the customers requirements...
at the moment i keep them exclusive to my guitars...
we just created a mega gain monster 30K output i just tested it and you wond believe the power and the definition...

here is a question guys: what do ya think i must put? black or chrome hardware? peace

Man, your work is fucking gorgeous. I highly approve, and if you're still around when I've got the moolah for a custom, I'm getting it from you. \m/

thanks for your kind words!

wanna see a cool pic? the guys of switchback and their hufschmid's 2 eight and 4 seven

 

[Heeboja]

They are really nice guitars but I think Black hardware and definitely a black hipshot bridge would make them look even more nicer. You do any tremolos?

yeah i may go to black hardware on this one... just looks too bad ass to place some chrome on it... Hipshot is my favourite bridges, I also love their new tuners, may put some on the guitar too....

yeah man i do tremolo's but i use Kahler... i got a personal problem with the floyds haha

thats a 7 i built with a kahler but set to non tremolo haha...

just received those pics!

[Sepultorture]

I got some cool pictures here of my hometown where i build my guitars

i'd kill to wake up and see mountains every morning, i love Europe

Hey patrick do you have any videos of someone actually playing your guitars who is not a "Djent aholic"? like someone playing on the higher register of the intruments? or some solo lines?..I'd like to hear the guitars sing instead thud thund thud!!...a matter of taste i guess...

i have some first pics here of my up comming Guitar....
one piece sapeli mahogany body, gorgeous stuff...

the neck is special, my friend gets it in the mountains surrounding me... this swiss flamed maple is 150 years old and has been drying for over 15 years.. perfectly quatersawn and tight grain...

the center strip is sapeli mahogany. If i do eventually laminate this is my style, simple center strip...

just plained the neck, fresh pics

enjoy

is it normal to have orgasms from wood? this wood is hot

 

[hufschmid]

is it normal to have orgasms from wood? this wood is hot

oh haha ya it can happen

i have a great supplier for the mahogany, i'm about to buy a huge piece in a couple days, awesome stuff, they let me go true all the blanks i want untill i find the ones i like... last time took me 2 hours haha

oh well i gave him a bottle of wine to thank him for his patience cause when i select wood i'm a pain in the ass


check out the figure on this one....

i think it´s pretty cool how all builders have their own wood preferences etc.

Roter - Wenge
Hufschmid - Mahogany

i´m not sure what i would say for Sherman though, because it seems like most of the people that order from him are very specific about their wood choises

do you just get lots of requests for mahogany, or do the customers just tell you to do what you do, and just request some specs?

i love those black stained mahogany guitars you do... they look so workhorse-ish, like they´re tools, not toys

 

[st2012]

Looks friggin amazing

well actually this is a good point you make here....

i stick to all mahogany or mahogany body and maple neck or laminate mahogany and maple for the neck... i mean i build any type of designs from body to head to customers specs but i have just found out after many years which wood suits better and which wood i can control the way i want... so this would be my favourite mahogany which is the sapeli specie with ebony or bloodwood for the fingerboards...

In the past I have build with all different types of wood, I even made some solid zebrano guitars at one point.. very heavy haha, padauk also which is fantastic wood btw... walnut... maple... even some Koto (african awk)...

i always come back to mahogany....

btw here are some fresh pics from the Ocean.... and the new tatoo of the lucky bastard Jona this is the hand which shreds on my 7 and 8 strings

Looks friggin amazing

thank you very much
