Oni Seven String



Silky Oak body, Pau Ferro neck and fretboard. Oni custom pickups with EVH-style wiring. Auto locking tuners. 26 frets. All-access cutaway.

Lightweight comfort contoured body. Excellent balance. Plays like buttah. Recessed output jack. Set-through neck. Workmanship is honestly like nothing I've ever experienced before!






The tone from the bridge pickup is very tight and focused. It's got some balls, for sure. Neck pup is more of a throaty tone, but it sounds really smooth on the lower notes.

I don't know how he's done it, but Dan's really done it this time!

I'd like to thank Dan and Paul, and everyone here who helped me decide to get this one! Thanks a lot!

I apologize for my poor photographic skills. This is really something I need some clearer pictures of. The wood is truly gorgeous!

AKA Australian Lacewood. But it's not a true lacewood nor a true oak, from what I understand. wikipedia

I'll say that I paid about the same for my BC Rich MB7, which is a fine guitar, but this Oni is definately leagues beyond the BC Rich. I couldn't have obtained a finer guitar for thrice this price from a well-known custom shop like Conklin, Novax, or Manson.

That's purty.

Sweet, glad you like it!

I think the difficulty photographing the lacewood is related to digital cameras... something to do with compression or noise filters maybe? I had the same problem.
