Hi guys, I’ve finally picked up a guitar built for me by a friend of mine… he has built only a few guitars in the past and this is his first ERG build, fully specced by me… (this is basically a replica of a Caparison Brocken 8, but given the availability and the price of these guitars, I asked my friend to build me one but to my own spec)
27” scale
27 fret
Gotoh locking tuners
SS frets beautifully done
Hipshot bridge
Fishman Modern 8
Push pull volumes pot
Mahogany body
Bolt on 5 piece maple and wenge neck
Ebony fretboard
Oiled finish
I mean I don’t know what you guys will think about a ‘rep’ but this guitar is everything I’ve ever wanted in an 8 string minus the price tag
There are full build pictures of this on his Instagram… Richtone.guitars
Please follow him and spread the luthier love as he is truly talented… nearly all of this was hand carved and cut to a seriously high standard
Also a video demo of a raw unmixed recording original by me
I’ll let some pictures do the talking…
