    It would be a real shame if you did give it up though Jonathan - you've got a lot of fans out here, even if some of us are only able to hope that you launch a cheaper Korean line ;)
    Indeed. Eagerly awaiting the "Episquire SE by Feline" range here :)

    For lovers of figured tops we have this coming through - it was part of the stash of wood we had for the 25th anniversary models but got used for a customer who wanted a few differences to what we are doing on the 25ths

  • Prince would've loved that.  :)
    Great guitar, as all of your guitars are.
    It was a real surprise to read of the difficulties you face in producing these instruments. They are clearly up there with the best of the best as the reviews and testimonies have shown.
    It's a sad thing that someone at the top of their craft, has such a hard time making it worth their while. I hope you manage to find the balance you're looking for.

    Oh - tales of our demise have been a bit premature.
    I have taken the step of revising what we quote to more accurately reflect the rising cost of materials and the time involved to make these guitars what we want them to be.
    2017 will be quite busy as we need to complete the 25th Anniversary models, complete some Blackmachine B6s and a number of custom commissions. We also have a largish number of started stock builds that we will be making for sale too.

    We may get less commissions due to the necessary price increase but will be able to lavish the time we like to on the builds that we do get and maybe make just a limited number of "special" stock guitars each year - like a limited edition for that year

    That will be the way forward I think.

    I think that's the perfect way forward.  When you're able to devote the time to make sure each guitar is the best they can be down to the last screw I'm sure the overwhelming 'fizz' of job satisfaction will bloom to new levels. Plus when the punter realises how much time, effort, skill and patience has gone into each build process the price will become justified.

    We are also doing a series of 5 flat-top versions of the 25th Anniversary with rosewood boards and headstock overlays
    These will have a Humbucker bridge/P90 neck configuration which has been popular with a lot of players

    Here are the first images

    Those tops are amazing - I like little ripple at the bottom :)
