I emailed them to ask if a 7 string version of that baritone 6 is something maybe coming in the future. Also if they would consider showing off those body carves with some nice solid metallic colors instead of the typical veneers.

I am actually really interested in grabbing one of those to check them out. They tick almost all the boxes in my "what i need for a 6" checklist but at that pricepoint, not really being able to correct an issue with a quick neckshim or a quick fretjob (or can you... never tried on stainless) is a bit of a gamble. And also because at similar pricepoints, Agile were always a let down in terms of neck build quality. So I'm torn between that and spending the same amount of money in the used market.
I guess that's what return policies are for heh...
That's my concern as well. The Fusion IIs were cheap enough that buying one wouldn't be much of a risk. These are a significant step up in price. That said, there happens to be a B-stock Amarok on Thomann right now in the color I want...
If you are EU based, their return policy is second to none. It's litteraly zero risk and I am not typing that to convince myself
I think they will!If only they made a les paul shape with these specs...
I think they made a limited edition high spec one but it's already sold out. And when I was looking at the Amaroks right now, the baritone was also not shown as available any more. Might have also sold out already or don't know what availability "on request" means.If only they made a les paul shape with these specs...
Do they look like we could swap the pickups with Fishman fluence without routing the pickup cavity?

Finally, an ok looking headstock on HB!
which was stolen by Kiesel and now stolen by HB hahaIts almost identical to the inline headstock Dean has been using the past 15 years.

on Plek, Im sure I remember seeing Thomann offer that themselves.Thats a great point and what has kept me away from these.
If you buy a new guitar, it almost always benefits from a quick level and minor crown. These chinese guitars don't have the greatest fretwork. New guitars always change the most in the first two years. If the frets are stainless, your only options are expensive. Do you really want to plek a $300 guitar? It would double the price if you had to ship it.

I wonder if you approached them and sounded them about about PLEK'ing an order before they ship it to you, you could get a better deal on it?
like bartering.

Just pointing out that they seem to be made in Indonesia (which doesn't take away from your post, but in my experience MiI >> MiC)
