I Want a Headless

[Eagle]

This is type 2 here? Pretty sure they're thrust bearings.

That’s correct. The bearings are clearly visible and a good way to identify version 2 at a glance.

Oh and on price. I paid £1700 for the Hydra pictured in previous posts. It’s mint condition no play wear at all and still has all paperwork and case candy. Know what you want save the money so you can make a cash deal and wait for the right instrument. This is the retail price of an American Strat in the UK.

Balaguer do headless too. I wonder if theirs are any good.

I believe @Devin has one of these iirc? I think he really dug it \m/

The chances of my getting a new guitar depend largely on how beautiful my wife thinks it is (obviously if I want something I don’t need her permission, but it’s the enablement piece here). I showed her a Strandberg and she was disgusted lmao. Have to reintroduce it later on

The beauty of my girlfriend I've been with 7 years is that she's an enabler.
She was out on tour with Greg Howe and on the off day she was in a store and got totally stoked about Strandbergs thinking it'd would make a great travel guitar.
Which is what got me into them....influencer BS be damned. Lol

Yep, had them build this for me about 10 years ago maybe? Spec'd it out to be as close to my Hamer USA Cali as possible and they nailed it

Still easily one of my favorite guitars I've ever owned, and back then I felt like it was an incredible value being like $1500 for a custom

Only changes I've made was adding an adjustable hi pass filter on the volume and a hipshot tremsetter on the trem

I just noticed there's not a single mention of Abasi in this thread.

Abasi doesn't make headless guitars, do they? Not that they ever have any guitars for sale anyway.

Had to double check. They were headless bass guitars I was looking at earlier.

What’s the scoop with them? Any good? Never seen a single one in person.

Neither have I. People who have them seem to like them.

Absolute beaut of a guitar. Perfect specs. Too expensive.

I got my H/O6 my Hydra and an Original 6 all three for less than that.

GOC released their latest range with the new bridge with easier to turn tuners and look what they use.

 

[Eagle]

They have put some thrust bearings in .

Someone has asked can they PM me for a potential swap for my Tao 6.

Better not be a HILS.

Is there something in particular that you don't like about HILS, other than that it's a cheaper guitar?
