Absolutely gorgeous! Congrats. I got my Pluto last year and in light of recent events I now think it’s gotta stay with me for the long haul . Fantastic and unique instruments to say the least.

No way! Happy to see you here! Your guitar is what inspired my build. I actually wanted to do pink, but he said it'd be too close to your build and therefore not possible. Your build is so awesome!
Well if you're ever thinking it won't be with you for the long haul, I'll gladly buy it off you.

I was between putting in an order with Padalka or with Oni before finally deciding on the Oni, just because I've wanted one for much longer.
These Padalkas are such eye candy, I never get tired of seeing them. And especially never get tired of seeing new pictures whenever they surface online. I belie I saw this build a couple of times online as it was being completed, and it is absolutely gorgeous. Congratulations! The Pluto SC shape is my favorite of his.

Probably diddling an Oni
Having had the opportunity to play both right in the same sitting, they are both the same caliber of instrument. Neither would disappoint you. And both Simon and Dan are so nice. Just good people. And they have a lot of respect for each other. I'd wanted an Oni since 2008 when I first saw one. Simon hasn't been around as long. So Oni first. The Oni has a bit more of a unique edge to it as well. You won't be disappointed man. I've had mine for almost two years now, and literally every time I pick it up, I'm blown away by it.

Yeah, No, Definitely.
Interesting that Simon is protecting the "one off"-ness of others builds he's done.No way! Happy to see you here! Your guitar is what inspired my build. I actually wanted to do pink, but he said it'd be too close to your build and therefore not possible. Your build is so awesome!

Is it just shielding tape on the back of the magnetic cover? I ask because I have a bass with a magnetic cover but it has started to warp over time, not sure the best way to go about preventing it from getting any worse

He posted on IG today for the first time in 5 weeks:
This is what I'm looking forward to with Oni, and it can't happen quickly enough.
Dan has been so incredibly courteous and pleasant so far, even though we only started talking a couple of months ago.
Maybe some day in the future there'll be both an Oni and a Padalka on my wall
but for now I enjoy the pictures and whatever soundclips/videos people post.

Why'd you cut off the shot of my guitar in the post?
Ha! Because I was on desktop, and the large screenshot got kicked out of the post for being too big, and I didn't have time to re-do it.

Even better, you can just embed the Instagram post since the update;

I find it interesting that a Russian called it the Iron Curtain. Makes me wonder what Simon thinks about what is going on in his area of the world.

Yeah, No, Definitely.
God you know how many times I have opened this thread just to check out this guitar? Serious bucket list material right here.
What's insane to me is how freaking affordable his builds seem to be, relatively speaking. You're not spending private stock money on what definitely looks like the most "worth it" boutique designs out there.

I'd say this was on the more expensive side of custom guitars. More than Mayones, oni, Waghorn, Ran (RIP), Skervesen, etc.
I don't know if many guitars are as expensive as PRS private stock. Maybe a les paul that Alex Lifeson himself played? So if that's your standard...there are plenty of "worth it" guitars
While he obviously can't make an explicit comment on the subject, he definitely doesn't seem supportive of the war.

If I were living where he's living, I wouldn't make any explicit or even implicit comments on it either. Not exactly safe to do so.
