unusual mm guitar

[cfljohnc]

Hello I was wondering if anybody had some information on this guitar. It looks like a mm neck but not the body.

No EBMM there. Probably a Warmoth guitar or some other such company, or maybe a custom build. They were building EBMM necks w/ the 4+2 headstock illegally (violating a patent) but have since ceased.

I like the cuttlefish design.

 

[Astrofreq]

That is horrendous.

Yes, but if you would build something with a cuttlefish motif, people wouldn't have to resort to these POS knockoffs!

can I add a to this as well?

I don't believe I've ever combined the words "cuttlefish" and "motif" before.

I thought the green things were handgrenades before I zoomed in the pic..........would have been better if they were. I give that guitar a fail minus.

A critique

cuttlefish was written in the pictures description...

cuttlefish and bougainevilla is a very odd combination......squid and flowers..... yup ..... just what I want on my guitar

that back plate with the strat jackplate has me wondering what the.....? looks like the strat jackplate is inside-out...now that's a little ingenious, but it protrudes out from the body; wouldn't it have been better to use it normally, so it doesn't protrude? and what is that other thing on the backplate? a switch? another output jack? why such a large piece of metal?

the only things I like about this contraption is the recessed string ferrules and the neck assy....

OLP neck, I think.

I like it.

Someone was told, "make a guitar like an Al, Silo, Axis, then be sure to use the classic Strat connection".

I can't tell.....but is this a hard tail with locking tuners? I played a Carvin last week with that setup and wondered why they'd put spertzels on a hard tail.

How much do they want for this thing. It would certainly demand a refinish.

OLP neck, I think.

That's what I as thinking too. In that case, I would not like it.

Hehe...ok. Here's a possible reason....just because it's a hardtail doesn't mean it's an EBMM hardtail. I find that the tuning on my LP goes out MUCH more frequently than my trem equipped EBMMS. If I wanted to mod it, that's the first mod I'd make. In addition, locking tuners are much faster to string...

Nice axe!

I wouldn't be surprised if it was a first for the entirety of human history

Looks like there's some birdseye on that neck. Never seen birdseye on an OLP. I'd think more likely some kind of aftermarket EBMM copy neck.
