[Bolwede]

Hello fellow musicians.
Haven't been on this forum since 2007 but now I'm back after a long break from headbanging and electric guitars since my band broke up.
I saw these beautiful guitars from Skervesen here and alot of good reviews from you guys, so now I'm pretty certain that I will order one.
But I can't decide what i want... so I need your help.

These are the two guitars I'm about to choose between.

Model: Chiroptera 7 (27"-25,5")

Top: 2p Burl Poplar with inverted burst (haven't decided color yet)
Fretboard: Ebony with rosewood dot inlays
Headstock: Still 7
Bindings: None
Bridge: ABM Single Saddles
Pickups: BKP Juggernaut (Tyger gold)
Tuners: Hipshot locking

Model: Raptor 7 (25,5")
Neck: 5p Wenge/Bubinga Neck-thru
Body: Swamp-ash wings
Top: 2p Burl Poplar or Spalted walnut (natural color)
Fretboard: Ebony with rosewood dot inlays

Chiroptera 7. It's apparently a really comfy body shape and its unique looking.

Edit: You could always always get a Viper like mine (Only 3 of them made so far. Mine was the first guitar with the Viper headstock).

Yeah it is amazing, the FF 27-25,5 is it hard to master with small hands.
I've got pretty small (girl hands) and the only seven I've been playing is the
Ibanez 7321 and I believe its a 25,5 and that is pretty comfy.

Will the 1,5" extra be a problem u think?

If you can get your hands on a fan fret guitar I would try that before ordering. Some people really love them and others can vibe with them.

Personally a 1.5" Fan is extremely manageable to me, but thats because I'm use to my friends 27"-30" Scale 10 String haha. I also own a 25.5" Scale 7 and a 27" Scale 8 string. Basically what I'm getting at is it's all you get use to. There might be a time period of adjustment but if you can get through that then you'll have a real unique instrument.

FF FTW

The Problem is to find a FF at all in sweden. But I'm almost certen that it will be the Chiroptera.

Make a visit to Finland and you could play mine
For me FFs are the masterrace, no going back to normal frets. FFs are so much comfier and nicer to play

I will build my own guitar instead this summer
