I really wanted to get the 7 string version of this a while back. Lack of reviews staved of the GAS though. There was a member on here that got a custom I think and mentioned that it really wasn’t up to snuff. That was also years ago, but you know how it goes :lol:

They do look so sick, though.

Is it just me or is this not too many degrees from the EBMM St. Vincent guitar? The offset body with the tapered waist thing. Cool guitar though, their stuff is typically pretty well designed.
Well, the description on their website literally says "Taking cues from the Explorer, Firebird, Danelectro Pro and Ernie Ball St. Vincent models, the S4 is a streamlined offset guitar that pushes these designs even further..." so probably not just you. I don't think it comes across as a rip-off of any of these things though, I think this is the right way to take inspiration.

I hadn't seen/read that, but it's neat that they name dropped it and a few other designs too though. I'd forgotten about that Danelectro shape, always loved it. Definitely looks like a modernized marriage of that and the St. Vincent with some multi-scale tilt and a funky Parker-y headstock. Color scheme is a little too Bauhaus for me, but I know they'll make some more conventionally colored ones.
