hahaa alright, fair enough
companies like …
companies like steinberger and parker have flared up with truly revolutionary and far superior designs and have had to settle for little more than a cult following because their aesthetics or certain design aspects arent “fender” enough. Ultimately bassists seem to be far more open to innovation as seen with the success of alembic, warwick and many others. Of course there are exceptions, even in the acoustic realm… Ovation is still doing very well and breedloves success is very encouraging.
…I thought he was …
…I thought he was making this guitar for himself. I’m not saying ALL GUITARS BUILT NEED TO BE PERSONAL, I’m saying the ones you build for yourself should.
the truth is that …
the truth is that companies like fender and gibson have constantly tried over the years to make major innovations and most, while far superior to their usual designs from a practical and technical standpoint, were rejected by the guitar buying masses. In at least fender’s case they have only themselves to blame, their advertising and close connections with revolutionary players like Hendrix have worked too well.
*shrug* and therein …
*shrug* and therein lies the problem. Like anyone else luthiers have to eat, pay the mortgage, drive a car. If you’re making something for yourself thats one thing but ultimately you are catering to the tastes of potential customers or a specific order in order to make money and pay for all those luxuries. More often than not you have to make the tradeoff between doing what you love and having that be shaped by what you can sell.
I checked out those …
I checked out those Ferrington, and they where alright, not my style. To be completely fair, I didn’t mean only change the body shape. I meant maybe paint an emblem on it, make a unique pickguard, do SOMETHING, even if it where a TINY little detail, to make it your own. Also, to be honest, I love Les Pauls and Strats, and I find guitars like a Razorback completely ridiculous.
for many years …
for many years during the spanish guitar renaissance the only way that was acceptable for a luthier to “sign” their guitar or make it in some way unique was the shape at the top of the headstock and subtle variations in the soundhole rosette. even today many luthiers, especially in the acoustic world, consider the strength of their craftsmanship to be the only personal touch they need to display in their work.
i appreciate that …
i appreciate that you enjoy unique aesthetic features on a guitar though. too many people just want a les paul copy or a strat copy these days… these designs were revoultionary 50 years ago in the infancy of the electric guitar movement… lets move forward. you may enjoy some of the things people like danny ferrington have done with the “classical” acoustic shape.
and i wont give any …
and i wont give any weight to a comment from someone who uses the word “shitloads”

I mock him because makes the lessons boring. As a person I’m sure he is nice, and I respect him.
I’m not going to …
I’m not going to get my advice from someone who starts a sentence with “lol.” I do agree, to some extent, that ascetics are a small part, but something should be given to make it look unique! Even just a different headstock! Also, I’ve seen loads of Horn cutaways in my GuitarCenter acoustic barn.
lol ive been making …
lol ive been making guitars professionally for 10 years. You have no idea what you’re talking about. Aesthetics are such a small part, especially with an acoustic. There is so much that isnt visual that could make this guitar unique (and lightyears better than anything that comes off of a “cookie cutter” embly line). And to be totally honest its harder to find a sharp cutaway these days… that was more of a 80′s/early 90′s kind of thing…
