Thread seems to be full of outraged middle aged and boomer males who enjoy playing blues on their expensive custom shops, Suhrs and PRS's in the spare bedroom ,complaining that some "yoof" has been mentioned as a world class artist.  

Except it isn't.

I'm sure he'll be crying himself to sleep when he reads this

I s'pose I'm a boomer and I think Rabea's great. Just saying.

I'm not a boomer and don't know anything about him. 
I don't watch YouTube much.

Haha, no not related  

Never been told I look like him before (or since I’m older, I guess he looks like me). Not offended by that though!

Honestly don’t have a clue which one of these people is the person the thread is about 

Also, to the OP: that statement will be from the guitarist’s own press release. No one writes advertising words these days, they copy/paste whatever they’re sent from the agent/distributer/manufacturer.

Well I’m *very* offended that you don’t recognise me!!

No, symmetrical by the looks of it!

If they were trying to sell him, this is what ebay’s AI tool would have come up with.

Getting back on topic, assuming the blurb referred to by the OP is for his signature EBMM guitar, then it really does nothing for me, especially for north of £4k - https://www.peachguitars.com/music-man-rabea-massaad-sabre-vileblood-burst.htm

I'm a huge MusicMan fan and still own two of many over the years, but their recent designs just don’t do it for me after they got it so right visually with many very successful models over the years. 

And I like Rabea for the avoidance of doubt, he’s a likeable fellow and has done very well for himself. 

But his sig model, or rather the Sabre on which it is based, just looks like a fat Luke that has melted then had a fancy top stuck on top.

Peach Guitars is a retail outlet. It needs to sell stock to generate profit. On-line product descriptions are intended to raise enthusiasm for the instruments for just long enough to convert a punter's impulse to purchase into a completed deal.

It's commerce. Hyperbole happens.

All these 'Signature' models from manufacturers gets very samey.......I haven't heard of 70% of them
