Prototype Blackmachine fan fretted 8 string

Just put these pictures up as I hadn't spotted them on the forum before. The previous 8 string incarnations have typically been 30" scale length. In an attempt to make it more playable Doug has gone for a scale length of 25.5" - 28".

Materials: Honduras Rosewood with Ebony fillets, and Zebrano veneer. HE has put up pictures alongside a 6 string to show that he is able to make something more reasonable for smaller hands that want extended scale.

Now that looks amazing! Doug makes nothing short of quality instruments, the quality of materials and workmanship is stellar!

neat!

I have a radical idea. The door swings both ways,
we could reverse the particle flow through the gate.
We'll cross the streams.
