:O

what is that middle guitar? it looks awesome!


That's a Chris Woods bodied 7620. It's crotch walnut on purpleheart on Alder. The pickups are Bartolinis and it's got a preamp onboard. I have another Woods body i'm going to be selling shortly that's very similar (but 3 different woods), but with better CNC routing. The one in that pic is hand carved.

for a bit there i was thinking it might have been a carvin that was reshaped, but then i noticed the controls were different.

Dig the red w/black. It looks really aggressive and classy at the same time. The lack of inlays on such a nice dark board really bumps it up too.

Who had that green with blackburst edges 7 string? I was looking for that thread and couldn't find it. Wanted to see that one again!

beautiful guitar! (that Ruby red with black edges)
I was thinking about going with that finish(or solid white) before I saw the Umberburst with a maple board.

All you have to do is ask for an over the top flame or quilt and they will provide it.

When I ordered mine I specifically asked for the quilting to be "Unique, and Non Uniform.. kinda Off the wall".. in other words. The guy I ordered it from asked if I wanted Satan's face in the center.. Hehehe
