NGD - Rek custom 7

[Snoop]

Hey all!
It's been a while since I posted something here. In my last topic I was asking advice of choicing a guitar. I was thinking about Rek or other custom shop - and decided to make a Rek.
And I think I made a right choice!
I received guitar some months ago, but I'm posting right now because I recorded some vids

But first, some photos:

My happy face (fck yeah!)

Here is more and specifications:
REK - custom electric guitars

And video:


Dont judge sound from the video, because i have shitty mic and haven't learn how to record from amp properly.
I also have 2 videos with it on my channel (one is Defeated Sanity , but sound there is even worse)
Actually i really enjoy the sound of this guitar and also it's very comfortable and great looking. I'm fully pleased with the result

Like it. Simple and unpretentious, and the way controls are out of the way is something I always appreciate.

Because you pick like a flid?

I do agree - simple, does precisely what it says on the tin and appears to be a great sounding + playing instrument.

Very tidy Snoop!

I enjoyed this controls placing when I had ESP stef-7, so I asked to make them the same way +2 coil-switches - makes guitar very universal - suits good both for clean or light blues-etc stuff to death metal

kmanick
Believe me it sounds much better live You know, recording an amp at home is really pain in ass lol + i don't have good mic

Whoa that looks nice! Like a real working man's axe. Do you mind if I ask the price of that beauty

 

[vampiregenocide]

Price is another good point of this guitars... not very much for a custom shop guitar

The guitar is kinda simple - yes! As i wanted. I wanted just mahogany body with bolt-on but not many 7s suit this easy request! Caparison Dellinger was one of them - but it's overpriced - I got this guitar with the same price I think

 

[squid-boy]

That's sexy as hell, broskies!

 

[shogunate]

How were REK to deal with? They're pretty lacking in online reviews and coverage, so any praise/criticism you might have would be helpful to a bunch of people

Congrats, that thing is dead sexy.... Like a COW sig, done proper

 

[Skirvin]

I really like the fretboard and natural finish, I'm not going to lie ... I'm jealous!

Yeah, I didnt know really much about them, I liked photos on their site and also the price anb building time (4 months is not a year) - also their master talked nicely via email with me. And also I found somehting on the net on ths forum and I remember I wrote to someone from polish forum (dont remember which)
Well, I can't say anything really bad...
Only few points - they forgot to make an inlays (but because of this mistake they made -100E offer for me)
And also luthier kinda dissapeared(didnt reply much) after I paid money, but maybe that was me annoying and stopping him from a job (as he said)
I'm really happy with anything else, and the main thing (sound) is awesome!
