That's what she said
Some of you may have seen this already, but I purchased it last week and wanted to post it for those who maybe haven't seen.
I'd like to start by saying - I've owned a Blackmachine B6 and played a B2 numerous times. So I know what a real blackmachine plays like.
This guitar was made as a copy of a B7 by a luthier in the UK who made a number of BM copies. All I can say is WOW. He certainly hit the nail on the head. I know a lot of people will give some hateful replies to this, but - I like this BM copy more than the B6 I owned as well as the B2 I played. It resonates very well unplugged, has an extremely flat neck (kind of like a cross between an ibanez and the Dean rusty cooley sig in feel).
The guitar sounds HUGE even with the thin body. The way it resonates while playing cleans puts my Caparisons/Ibanez/Washburns to shame. The only guitar I can compare it to tonally is a Musicman JPX. Though, I always felt my JPX was a bit bulky and I never felt comfortable with a non-slanted headstock.
I always pick up 7's and find things that arent quite the way I'd like, and have never felt 100% happy until now. This is it, my extended range GAS is over. My new stage guitar has been found, and I couldn't be happier.
I used my phone camera - apologies, enjoy
