Wow! Love these designs, 8 string and especially the headless. Can't wait to see the 7!!

 

[AndreasD]

Cool designs. Would like to see some more natural tops though.

 

[Scattered Messiah]

Looks great,
And I must consent Mr. Brums notion: an 8string fannedfret headless would indeed look sick!

I might concider spending some money soon

Werde Dich und deine Gitarren weiterverfolgen!

 

[Brill]

Intresting design, you plan on making basses?

 

[ClaasGuitars]

I would live to build some basses. I am waiting on someone ordering one, cause right now I got a lot to do, there is not much time to build something for my own.

 

[ClaasGuitars]

Some very nice, fine lined and fine structured ivoroid binding.

 

[jbard]

I'd love to see something finsihed with that black and white ebony. That stuff has been a serious pain for me to find. Do you know a good place to get more exotic woods in Germany? I'm in Stuttgart.

 

[Rook]

Wow, nice design and great price.

Since I ask everyone ill ask you, you coming to Frankfurt in April?

 

[ClaasGuitars]

Sadly I cannot come to Frankfurt this year, I got too much to build. I hope I am there again next year, and also at NAMM.

I buy my woods from a professional wood dealer, who got a lot of european and exotic woods, and sometimes you can find some very special woods dusted in corners. But you can only buy there as a professional woodworker.

But as a privat you can look on ebay for woods, sometimes you are lucky....

 

[Maniacal]

Very nice! I would like to try one of these guitars.

 

[Lilarcor]

I really like your Ahab design. Particularly the baritone looks great.

Would you consider building a 7 string Ahab (in the long run, as I'd have to raise some money first)? What are your average turn-around times?

 

[ClaasGuitars]

@ Lilarcor: I sent you a private message.

To you all: You can order my all guitars as 6-,7-,8-, maybe even 9-string guitars for sure! Building takes three months, and I can start immediately.

 

[Kayzer]

Some very nice, fine lined and fine structured ivoroid binding.

Hey Alex, is that going to be my baby?

 

[ClaasGuitars]

Hey Alex, is that going to be my baby?

YEAH!

 

[DaddleCecapitation]

I absolutely LOVE designs like these. Complete focus in designing a guitar that's all about functionality.

I always love the concept of a super ergonomic guitar design and I think you've managed to hit the nail on the head. Kudos to you, sir.

 

[Metaloaf]

Great designs! definitely my kind of thing. I've been looking for these type of designs, they look very comfortable. Nice!

 

[DaddleCecapitation]

I love crazy guitar designs. I was a huge fan of B.C. Rich until I found out that they were completely dysfunctional.

I think these look really promising.
