The tobbaco one's pretty cool, but that red one. lawdy

 

[myrtorp]

Yeah I think i prefer the tobacco one, the gold pups is a little too much for my taste!

 

[jl-austin]

Wow, there for a second I thought I walked into a country and western bar in Texas.

 

[Lada The Great]

I wish they would release more 7 string teles. IMO the shape works really well with 7 string neck, but not just huge fan of current finishes available for 7 string versions, while 6 string versions have plenty of cool finishes.

 

[HeHasTheJazzHands]

Still want Ola to go insane and release some 28+'' baritones.

 

[NeglectedField]

Just keeps bringing out more and more models, I love it!

 

[myrtorp]

I made this mockup a way back and here it is again again! I would really like another single pickup axe, I dont like the green on the current one available
Disregard pickup selector
Edit: 2 more mockups (yes i used paint! i cant photoshop)

Where X ola? Me need x shape ola

 

[Crundles]

Where X ola? Me need x shape ola

For real; I've been holding onto some minor cash in reserve, in the vain hope that someone, anyone at all, PLEASE just release a lower end 7-string X-shape with 26.5 scale and a hardtail.

Of course I'm fully mentally prepared for Ola to slap it at 22.5 inches or somehow invent a floating TOM specifically for the X, but still - hope.

 

[manu80]

pretty sure thet with the Metal series at ESP, a single HB serie would work very well

 

[profwoot]

Didn't Ola post a teaser for an X like a year ago? I know they'd been designing it for a while so maybe they decided more tweaks were necessary.

 

[JimF]

Funnily enough I was catching up with older Ola vids I'd missed and he was testing a sample of the X recently. Certainly after the 2nd office move.

 

[SonicBlur]

I wish Ola would suspend releasing a new guitar every 10 minutes and resolve the fretboard cracking issues, fret sprout, peeling logos, etc....my 2021 A1.6FB is a mess. Being that it was purchased second hand from Reverb, I'm SOL but it's a good business card to show that a guitar not even a year old is already messed up. Never again.

 

[Jeffrey Bain]

I wish he made some other headstocks. Just a little variety

Man I have been GASing hard at the Arctic Metals, and also the Black Metal. I think I remember them being cheaper back then too, I saw used one for like 550 euro a few years ago and I regret not grabbing it.

I've never been one for splatters but this one is so badass, HNGD!

 

[myrtorp]

Looks great man HNGD!

 

[Tree]

Needs a highlighter yellow, or green strap to go with it.

Maybe some neon pickups as well. Congrats!
