It's not bad for a novice guitarist?...

Yeah, bleedin eck, I'm a novice, I wish I had a proper Tele!! /envy

Here's my amateur pieces of kit:

My beloved Tanglewood semi and my slightly wonky amp (got a couple of paperclips wedged in it)

And my first guitar, some Prince jobby I get out once in a while.

Sorry for poor pic quality, phone camera!

you like muse then

I do but none of that stuff was purchased because of them! Just trying to get a versatile sound - stuff like the whammy is more of a toy which I might sell though. Bit of a gear junkie to be honest (but who isn't

)

Out of interest what made you go for one of these guitars?
I've been on the site but couldn't see anybody famous who uses them.
Where did you hear about them and how much did it cost etc?

theres 2 main reason i went for these guitars, one is that at the time the custom shops in UK all either said they would not build the guitar i wanted (either to my complete specs or as they wouldnt directly copy a PRS) or they cost in excess of £3,000

although i dont know any famous people that use them i never did see this as a big problem, there only a small company and due to this and them being in russia i think they may struggle to afford to pay a big name player just for publicity.

i heard about them from the MXtabs forums, and although theres only one guy on there that owns one there name was flying about a lot and seemed to have a very good rep.

and it cost me £1,700 which is a lot of money but when you compare it to £2,500 PRS guitars it does make you realise mow much we get ripped off on american import things (im not saying PRS guitars are bad, id love one, but i do think there too expensive in the UK)

Nice guitar deathrow

The top is gorgeous, gibaltar bridge too

(i think?) The inlay is a bit OTT for me but it still looks great.

EDIT:

I obviously can't work cameras..

'Taken a new photo as the old photo in here is really old and i've got a new amp

I should have a new Ibanez RGA121 by next week too so expect pics aswell
