Wow, that's as clean as it gets.

Alright, I'm impressed with his wiring as well..
I'm still trying to figure out where he managed to ground the pickups to....
That's painfully clean.

That's pretty impressive work. If he can keep it up and earn enough to get a living from his production speed he's all set.

Excuse me one question please if I may. How do you advice a trick to make the headstock transition on a multiscale neck? In other words not to have straight line between headstock cap and nut.

a subtle stinging sensation..
I was squinting hard
He probably has them grounded to the trem, or there is a battery box elsewhere on the guitar and it's an active system
The quality of his work finish reminds me of the way Ron Kirn handles a Strat. The inside is as pretty as the outside!

Jesus. The cleanliness of the guy's work makes some big brands' custom shop creations look like a Dima Ghotic.
£20k for a Blackmachine that looks like a supermarket own-brand guitar or one of these for a fraction? Hmm.

I almost feel like I'm cheating on my padalka by saying this, but
this one really stands out, such a stunner

He lists it in the description as just a "roller nut". I'm not sure who makes it though.

That particular one is made by LSR. Fender distributes them.

Listen to physics.
Bear in mind when it comes to the LSR nuts, they're great - until you want to use thicker strings OR any gunk/grime gets into the works.
Then they are liable to become a scratchy mess that you'll never get the grit out of.

Cool, good to know!
As for specs, I'm super torn because on one hand I'd like a bass and I feel that the design of the Ennea is very unique and works really well with his grain-filled ash two-tone thing:
Guess I'm debating between an Ennea guitar or an Ennea bass, but also somewhat considering the Saturn/Neptune as well. But the green/black finish is killer, the new brown/black one is really nice, and then that white/black one looks potentially really suitable for the Ennea shape. I'm just at a loss -- and I haven't even gotten around to what number of strings it would be
How much is one of those ?

As was inevitable, his prices have gone up. Base price for Ennea singlecut 4 string is now $2,500 and goes up with options (of which there are very many - and reasonably priced IMO). The price list can be downloaded from his order page.
Of course, coming into the EU, import charges are to be expected as well.

Yeah that's a really beautiful instrument man, congrats. That top is just fantastic. Can't wait until mine is done

Also, going from when you posted the mockup, looks like it's just over three months build time. Not bad at all!
