So stoked to see what those look like

Asrial · 12-19-2010, 03:10 PM

Tempting... Oooh so tempting!
If it was the iceman body-style, I would've been blown away, and bought it on the spot!

well, the cool thing about RAN, is you could probably tell them to make it an iceman.

Subz · 12-19-2010, 03:55 PM

Wowawewa very nice!

Gitte · 12-19-2010, 04:15 PM

that thing is awesome!! im usually not a fan of natural guitars but this is just great!!

chucknorrishred · 12-19-2010, 04:30 PM

ive always wanted a RAN but......

Deadnightshade · 12-19-2010, 04:41 PM

If the upcharge for the 8 string fanned fret isn't greater than 500 euros on the standard scale price, i see my 8 string headless plans setting back infinitely...

EDIT: I actually emailed them,so wait for the response

JacobShredder · 12-19-2010, 07:28 PM

I emailed them about doing it with passive pickup routes lol.

Can anyone tell me about their quality? Fretwork=???

I know they are known for their beautiful looking instruments i've never heard anyone testify for their playability other than jeff waters

ditto

and that neck joint is really nice. one of the few bolt on designs that would be real comfortable to play. i was thinking of doing something similar on my guitars from now on.

Yeah, I caught that too. I'll be curious to see what the upcharge is, though.

Rojne · 12-20-2010, 04:08 AM

was going for a Ibby 1527z, but this.. getting a "kind-of" custom guitar for a cheaper price, this guitar looks awesome!

loktide · 12-20-2010, 06:42 AM

wow. call me interested

SkullCrusher · 12-20-2010, 11:02 AM

I emailed them to ask about finishes and they said it would be a 330euros up charge for silver finish on body and headstock face. Yes Please

CloudAC · 12-20-2010, 11:56 AM

I emailed them asking how much it would be for an 11th to 13th fret inlay upgrade and it brings the total cost in 7 string version to 1140 euros.

Deadnightshade · 12-20-2010, 12:16 PM

Here is the response i got in regards of the fanned 8 string pricing:

"Hello Dimitris,
thanks for your interest in our work, I`m glad you like our new project.

The upcoming FF8 Crusher will be equipped with the same basic materials, but also any wood upgrades are possible here.
Probably, we will add another body/neck wood as a std feature, but it will be decided later.
Rough estimate price for this model is 1330 euros.

Best regards
Dariusz Kuczynski "

Skin Coffin · 12-20-2010, 01:36 PM

here's the info I got so far:

"The passive version is available, of course... for BKP pu`s add 130 euros.
Guitars without case are extremely well secured, with tons bubble wrap inside and
outside the cartoon and with special buffers on corners. It is safe!

Rgds
Dariusz Kuczynski"

The thing about the case was because when I asked him the price, he told me "For flight case to this project please add 160 euros."

JacobShredder · 12-20-2010, 01:40 PM

Yeah my response about passive pickups

"thanks for your interest in our work, I'm glad you like it.

The passive routes/pickups are available, of course."

Then asked about payment:

"A deposit of 50% of the invoice total is required before we add your project to our work schedule.
We accept payment by bank wire transfer..also it is possible to make the Paypal payment (you will have to add 3.9% to the total to cover their fees.)"

So far, I'm sold. I'm thinking about trying to get my parents to let me send a downpayment. I just gotta convince my financial advisor aka, me madre. My dad'll be down no doubt.

Did you ask them the price for any specific passive pups?

Nah, I sent another asking how much just the option would cost.
I can't really see there being an upcharge for dimarzios as they're cheaper than 707s but BKP probably so.

vampiregenocide · 12-20-2010, 02:39 PM

That is mighty sexy, good to see Ran have put some work into an original shape, as all their other guitars seem to be copies (albiet stunning ones).

Well, if it's a real flight case and not just a hardshell case, that sounds like a pretty good price to me, right?

I thought it was the same thing

, what's the difference?

abadonae · 12-20-2010, 03:50 PM

I've always held ran very highly in regard, they're toting players like pat obrien and jeff waters at one point in time as the people that had signature models from them,

They've always looked incredible...and i came when i saw this so it must be totally worth the cash
