Hi folks. Well, it's been a while coming, but the Imploder Mk2 has finally been delivered to the customer. It's been completed and in safe storage until his birthday, which was last week. Here's what he had to say about it when he finally got his hands on it;
"It's not quite what I was expecting. It's better. Much better. In fact, it's a superb instrument. The craftsmanship is outstanding and the black korina is much more striking in real life than in the pictures. It's a truly beautiful instrument, in a dark, understated sort of way. I love all the little details, like the wenge covers and the little scoops, the korina binding, the way the wenge shows through the headstock veneer where the truss rod adjuster is, the recessed brass ferrule block, right down to the slick frets and the way you've rounded off the ends. It looks every bit as good, if not better than other guitars costing many thousands.
More importantly, it plays very well. I'll need to tweak the truss rod a fraction now it's settled in, but other than that, it's flawless. The neck profile is perfect, so it's a real joy to play. The sustain is simply unreal. Single notes on the high frets bloom and sustain and sing forever. Unbelievably good.
All-in-all, this is as good a guitar, if not better than anything I've ever played. And that includes a lot of very high-end instruments.
So - very well done! An outstanding job." Mr L.T. from Leeds.
