Re: Abasi Guitars
Well I’m gonna go against the grain... I dig those guitars. Kinda bit like Plini’s ones but on a grander scale

Re: Abasi Guitars
They're really interesting looking guitars. I've never seen on a guitar is a two piece neck, joined down the middle like that. Is that something new? I wonder what the reason for doing that is?
They're growing on me too!

Re: Abasi Guitars
I like how Tosin has incorporated ideas from the guitars Rick Toone and Ola Strandberg made for him. I would like to ask him whether he ever wanted to include a neck profile like either Rick's Advantage/IPNP or Ola's EndurNeck.
I actually got the chance to ask Tosin why he didn't play Toone's "Sketch" guitar more often, and he said (IIRC) that it actually had tuning stability issues under the stage lights. But the fact that it's only a seven-string probably had as much to do with it. Who knows.
