Thanks guys for all the nice words. I will say that if anyone gets an opportunity to try out a Oni, go for it! They are amazing guitars.

I'm working on trying to get some clips for the guitar but I just haven't had the time lately. I'm hoping to work on something soon. :yesway:

Tommy, that is seriously stunning. The idea of an 8 just eludes me whenever I think about it. But then I see cool designs like these, and how ergonomic they are, really makes me want to give one a try! HNGD Buddy! :D

Playing an 8 string really does open up more possibilities. You think and play in a slightly different way. It's interesting to try out.

What's the neckprofile on the beauty like? I'd appreciate as exhaustive of a description as possible!

The neck is extremely flat. It makes my 1527 feel huge and rounded.

Now I'm not the biggest fan of flat necks but for this guitar it feels right. I'm really horrible about explaining stuff through the internet. So here's a picture to try to explain.



It's very comfortable and I've never played another neck close to this so that's part of the reason I can't explain well.

^Show yourself Lex Steele! :D

I didn't get it.. until I used Google. Now I do get it. Long, hard ebony... I really could've gotten through my entire life not knowing who that was and would've been happy...
