Please take alook and let me know what you think.

A little like Rainsong etc, Janis Ian used to use a sweet one on German TV, so nothing new under the Sun

That looks good.    I’ve got an Emerald 6/12 double neck carbon fibre acoustic and it’s glorious - sounds good and feels very stable.

The sbrothers one sounds nice but the weave looks quite crude.  The ones on their website do not do them any favours.  It's like a woolly jumper, (but your nan can probably knit better than they, or whoever does it for them, can weave carbon fibre).

Edit: Your first post, you're from Bristol, the FB page linked to has a reference to the Bristol Guitar Show.
2+2=5 but apologies if you are affiliated in some way.  That was just my initial reaction.

They have no business address listed anywhere and their phone is a mobile. No stockists. No details about ordering. The guitars might be lovely but they need to get a clue.

Yup. Looks sketchy to me. Not many pictures either considering the asking prices.

Which s brother are you? You're allowed to promote your stuff here, but you need to be upfront about it.

Haha guys ok you got me. I am not from sbrothers Composite but they are my friends And just wanted to see what people thought about their guitars and opinions. Which already I can tell them the negative about the site.

You can certainly tell them that this sort of approach to marketing makes them look dishonest and untrustworthy.

 Yes wasn’t the right approach. Everyone makes mistake no need to be rude. Sorry.

You were the one being rude. Don't pretend anyone else did anything wrong.

           Strange , i can only see constructive criticism .
   You could explained a little more about them and provided the website address , always - the more information the better .   Jumping back with this comment doesn't help .   Perhaps SBrothers themselves would like to join the forum and be a bit more professional  .

The change of username is a bit unusual- I thought that wasn’t allowed in here?

It's not allowed.

@digitalscream is currently looking into what happened.

If they really are in the UK they are going to need marketing people who can spell. It's "fibre".
