RAN Guitars Post yours!

[SqWark]

did you ever get these things resolved? also, have you got pics of your ran? i remember being really impressed with the mock up...would love to see the actual thing!

Resolved as in Ran came through and fixed it and made it right? No.

I had the dud parts replaced and came to terms with the omissions/errors. I mean what else can you do?

After sales customer service was some of the worst I've ever experienced in my life. That the employee could not even entertain the possibility that there could be anything wrong with their work in any way and in fact, became defiant and combative told me everything I needed to know.

Whoever does the actual work on Ran guitars has some real talent no question about it. Challenge is getting accurate information to them so that you actually get what it is you're wanting.

There's pics on the Ran owners facebook page if you wanna check it out. No offense but I'm so Ran'd out I just don't feel like posting any here.

If you like it and are interested in buying message me here.

Lotra, are you still waiting for your RAN to get shipped or even finished?
Last time i've read about your build was in 2015 - so whats up?

I received my Crusher FT exactly 1 year (like quoted) after starting the process. It turned out exacly like I wanted it: Flawless, no complaints about anything.
Also Dariuz answered mostly within 24h so it sounds pretty strange that he's not answering at all.

Hi and hello (since this is my first post):

My latest addition to my quiver :

RAN Crusher 6

Saw it on eBay and simply could not resist. This is about exactly what I would have ordered spec wise.

Specs are:

6 string (obviously)
25.5" scale length
Ran AANJ w/NTB style heel
Mahogany body
Swamp Ash top wood with hand-rubbed oil finish and matching headstock
5 piece mahogany/wenge neck
Ebony fretboard
Dunlop 6100 frets
Luminlay dots
GraphTech Black TUSQ nut
Hipshot fixed bridge
Schaller M6 locking tuners
BareKnuckle Aftermaths in bridge and neck position

Almost no wear. Love the classy look and feel of it.

Every detail on it is flawless. Really high quality components and craftsmanship for the price (especially used it good condition ) if you love a simple setup and look.

Cheers,
Patrick

Looks incredible, mate!
I'd really like to see your face the moment you're unboxing this beauty

Tell us more about the specs!

Greetings from GER

 

[wlfers]

Thanks! I'm pretty excited. I've always been content with mid-range guitars but it was finally time to get something unique. Edited the post to add some more specs.

This will be my first fixed bridge in a long time, and it will be my first experience with locking tuners. Can't wait to not be restringing a floyd ha!

just swapped out the pickups in my crusher...they look so badass!

 

[Keyvanizator]

Oh .... I'm late to the party.

I'm thinking of getting another one, but I don't know if I can afford it

 

[PatrickTTFG]

Beautiful! Enjoy that thing.

I am late to the party as well, but I was just introduced to RAN guitars. Reading some of the material on this forum aided that. I recently became an insatiable fan of Skervesen and picked up my first Raptor 7-string; it is the single best guitar I've ever played, and I was lucky to get it. Anyway, RAN is/are made in Poland and are very distinctly like Skervesen in their aesthetic/appointments/equipment and apparent attention to detail. SO, I came across this RAN Crusher FF8 yesterday and had to have it:

It's a fanned-fret 8-string, 24.5"-26.5" scale (which is oddly short on the treble side but I'll compensate with tuning/string gauge) with a mahogany neck and body/neck-thru construction with maple stripes, flamed maple top, satin finish, ebony board with white binding, ABM single saddles, and a Bare Knuckle Aftermath set of p'ups. I'm currently attempting to sell another 8-string of mine and this beast will be taking its place. Should have it two weeks from now and I cannot wait.

Also, I'm a newcomer around these parts so: hello, everyone. I look forward to being involved here. Take it easy!

 

[DropTheSun]

Here is my RAN:

Body material: mahogany
Body finish: hand-rubbed oil
Fingerboard: plain maple
Fret size: Jescar FW57110-S
Fingerboard inlays: offset dots
Fingerboard side inlays: Luminlay dots
Bridge: Hipshot Fixed 7-string
Tuning machines: Schaller M6 Locking
Straplocks: Schaller
Pickups: BareKnuckle - Black dog set

I have owned this guitar for a year now and i just love it! 10/10 for overall quality.
