He is definitely not being nice about it but he does have some legitimate points. Its a great first guitar, certainly better then what I am expecting mine will look like, but if you want to do it again, ignore the insults and try to glean the real advice from what Angus and the people like him are saying.

Then if you remove all the negative asapects from Angus he'll basically be Mike

I guess Ill just ignore him completely from now on and listen to people like Mike

As I dont need people like Angus around

Mike would make a great luthiery teacher, but Angus wouldnt.

Nice guitar. Natural finishes are some of the best

Something about the body is weird to me. Doesn't look like it's long enough. Maybe it's the extra frets (

) messing with my mind.

Your actually right the body is stout(short and fat) but the upper horn is longer than usual to gain good balance

nd also it doesent seem to make the neck look as huge cuz the body is more in proportion to the neck as opposed to the Ibby 8 string.

Angus is a great guy, and a great player with alot of knowledge on how guitars are made,and his arsenal of guitars & basses would make anyone`s jaw drop.
So he knows what he is talking about when it comes to how guitars are made! His posts might come off harsh sometimes, but that is just how he types....very direct, and to the point. Thats all. I`m sure he was trying to educate you, rather than put you down, Adam

Now if only he could have told me that, because hes always sounding a bit assholish everytime he posts, but with your reputation Id rather listen to you and you have a great attitude

Thats a winning combo.
