ERG Custom Builders

[zorn]

There was a birdfish on ebay some time ago.
It was sold by a German guy on ebay.com with a rep of 0!
Alhough it was the old model it came with the add. 2000 € midi converter as a bonus thrown in.
Of course it was sold for less then half what a new one would cost.
Nevertheless it seems that the deal went smoothly and a lot of people are pissed now (including me).

with some traditional(or shoud i say 'typical' ?)
maple-top option, doesn't he?

I don't know.
I am not much into traditional maple top guitars and like love his non-gloss finishes, so I didn't ask him.
He is usually very open about custom ideas, something his website does not give away. I am not sure if he does it on purpose or just forgets to mention it.

But he is in a position now, that allows him to reject custom ideas which would compromise his designs. He would never put crappy looking pick-ups in his guitar just to make the customer happy. I do not know how he feels about natural finishes on his guitars.
Just ask him

Do tap -style instruments count? Then Warr, Stick and Bunker are a must!

Accoustics??? Erving Samogyi, Sergey De Jonge and Jeff Tragoutt - some of the best luthiery in the world!

Who's that guy with all those youtube videos...? I remember him making an RG style 8 string that was posted on here a couple times...? Something with an "Hum" at the beginning.

This is very unfortunate. I think the man is really ahead of his time. I spoke to him a couple of times regarding buying the 9-stringer he built and that was up for sale by one of his customers. I should have acted soones, as the owner of instrument decided to keep it. Todd kidly offered to build me a similar guitar, but I could not afford it at the 'new' cost.

I would really love to buy his 'hybrid' some day.

AH!

Hufschmid was who I had in mind.

Just for curiosity,
you guys know the luthier who JUST BUILD WHATEVER THE CUSTOMER ASK?
of course, i respect all luthiers own philosophies, policies and more.,
but curious if there's anybody who takes some 'shitty' custom orders like
"Can you make ESP SC608b CLONE with reverse headstock?"
anybody?

What about Roter? I've talked with Sebastian, and from what I can tell, he's open to doing anything.
