I like that shape

 

[skyclad]

Me too )) Made in USA...

The style of this guitar is based on the Ibanez Iceman and Desroyer (hence the name De-Icer). I literally layed the image of both guitars atop one another and split the difference between the body lines.

The body's sides and back are the new high gloss black textured finish. The headstock and body chamfer are a chameleon, flip/flop purple to green paint and the front of the body features our new Extreme Texture finish. It resembles something repilian or alien like. No two are alike.

The electronics feature a push/pull coil tap giving this beast a sweet voice too.

I like that too.

 

[JPMDan]

looks more like a Ibanez Paul Stanley Sig. just from a different builder and in 7 string version

floyd must be there for sure...

I've always thought the iceman shape looked incredibly gay,
but this looks cool.

Also, i like how the starting bid is $666.

I don't like that, actually. The texture finish doesn't do it for me, I don't like the mirror accents, and the work on the back, particularly at the neck joint, looks a little iffy, to say nothing of the headstock.

Eh, to each their own.

I emailed Hembry guitars to find out out their pricelist on guitars, I noticed they said they wont be selling custom guitars over 1,000 dollars anytime soon except for carved guitars.

I love the shape, but that finish isn't that hot.


edit: Is that a Washburn WG587 neck!? That headstock and those inlays make it look like one..

 

[David]

that is a fucking sick guitar!

No wonder it looked so familiar, and no wonder the maple edge, particularly where it intersects the last tuning peg, looks like an industrial accident at the very tip. Oh, and then there's the uber-classy permanent marker logo...

That neck joint just doesn't inspire confidence, between the angular cuts and the (ahem) bolts holding it to the neck.

The more I look at that, the more uneasy I become.

 

[Kagami]

Soo...it's a custom body and refinish...whoo...what's wrong with bolts? lol

w00t 2700

 

[Firebeard]

Holy crap! That brings new meaning to BOLT on neck....

 

[Mastodon]

Yeah the headstock was the first thing I noticed too.

It does look very shaky from those pictures, I wouldn't buy it.

 

[Firebeard]

....I wouldn't buy it.

$200 project...Maybe!
$666 piece of junk "Custom"? NO!

 

[noodles]

Looks like some dude read a couple of books and decided to build a guitar in his garage. I'll pass.

Starting bid is $666, though.

 

[JPMDan]

I just got a quote from this guy for a set neck guitar to my specs, $1200

 

[Mr. S]

hmmm, i dont know what it is... but it sure aint purdy, looks a bit thrown together

 

[skyclad]

Is that a Washburn WG587 neck!?

Yes.
