This was a really fun guitar own just for a party piece The bad news is that it weighed quite a bit and felt like it would cause hunchback syndrome if worn too long standing.

But hey, it takes all types right? The Blakhart is pretty straightforward, with a twist, but the MINARIK INFERNO is pretty insane. It also weighs as much as a car so it's tough to use Todd QUOTE (Cosmin Lupu @ May 22 2013, 07:13 AM) I am more of a classic shape kind of guy SSE - simple, sturdy and elegant.

IT's a BLAKHART and it's similar to a DECIBEL GUITAR body and if you go to the Blakhart site and have the red one built, it will cost about $1,700.00 U.S. The best "deal" is typically a barely used guitar that's been setup properly and not had a chance to sit on the rack very long. Just sitting in a high traffic store will ruin a guitar after a bit.

Sadly, making them one by once means having to charge 4 or 5k each and only doing a limited # of builds each year meaning being a perpetual one or two man shop. Some folks are quite happy with that (Daemoness for example) and do well. Some outfits try to grow and expand and run in to problems with quality when they take in more orders than they can fill. This can be very bad for their rep and kill the entire company (E.G. Halo Guitars etc.) As a result, many smaller shops are pre-fabbing the wood in Asia where it's cheap and doing the fit/finish here by hand. Thus the birth of the "Hybrid Custom" E.g. $1,000-3,000 builds instead of double that price.
