    I am a massive, massive Devin Townsend fan but that guitar really, really does not do it for me.

    Amazing work construction-wise (the wooden Mandelbrot thing, wow!) but the overall look is a bit too weird.

    The music he makes with it though... oh my god.

    Not what I would choose to play, but there is some serious craftsmanship there.

    Wow, I really enjoyed that video.

    Great to see the craftsmanship in action.

    Quite satisfying for the inner maths geek in me too.

    i love it in many ways, although it really does show how pointless a white finish on flamed maple is.   such a nice top hidden behind white pigment :(

    I like the Mandelbrot inlay. The guitar, not so much.

    Always loved the AK1974, and I'm partial to a bit of Devin (really need to check him out some more). I actually really like that guitar, superb craftsmanship and that inlay wow. I'm always happy not to see another black guitar :D
    I would love to change my username, but I fully understand the T&C's (it was an old band nickname). So please feel free to call me Dave.
