New Balaguer Guitars online guitar builder!

Would be a toss up. Probably the blue.

 

[mystixboi]

I have a spalted top thicket bb and a silverburst hyperion. The only problem is picking a #1 lol.

I'd like to get either a growler or astra next.

I should have my astra in a few weeks!

 

[Beyond Black]

Cool builder for sure! I didn't see any options for fret sizes or neck radius. Are they not optional?

 

[MetalHeadMike]

That builder is really cool! What draws me to this guitar is the options. Everything I could want; less radius options as mentioned above. That isn't really a deal breaker for me though.

 

[JerEvil]

Yeah there is the "Neck Profile" option that you can choose either Comfy C or Thin D. Comfy C feels very similar to my G&L ASAT which is a bit thicker. The Thing D is more like the Jackson KV/RR profile. Not quite Wizard thin. I'll see if I can get the spec's from Joe.

Some kick butt mock-ups in here y'all!

Thinking a Hyperion or Thicket will be my next guitar.

Yeah man the trans-white one I posted above is a strong contender for my "next" guitar! LOL!

As is this...

Dude I REALLY like the Hyperion with the Modern headstock, you should totally do eet

Hey ya'll,

- I only offer 16" fingerboard radius right now, but I may re-introduce 12" as an additional option, which I was doing before I switched over to 16". We'll see.
- My Comfy C Neck Profile thickness is .800" at the 1st fret and .880" at the 12th fret.
- My Thin D Neck Profile thickness is .730" at the 1st fret and .790" at the 12th fret.
- My tuners are made in South Korea in the same factory Hipshot tuners are made, and yes they are locking and are 18:1 ratio. Hipshot only machines their bridges in the USA, tuners are in SK.

Let me know if you guys have any questions!

12 would be cool, but a 12--->16 compound would be even cooler

I'll more than likely be contacting you this year for a semi-custom. You guys in Conshohocken?

Ah shit...

 

[JerEvil]

Here’s the mock-up of my build that’s coming in

And here’s what I sent as a reference for a custom burst

As with any custom color, no guarantees as my all things are equal but Joe’s finishes are amazing so I’m not worried. Beyond excited for this guy.


Here’s a progress pic

 

[Econ]

What is the average wait time for a semi custom build? Is there a place in the website that explains the difference between the Balaguer pickup models?

 

[Nitrobattery]

Well this is a hoot.

Evergreen Humbucker:
8.9k Bridge
7.9k Neck

Feral Humbucker:
12.5k Bridge
7.9k Neck

I think the Trueno is 17.6k bridge

Any possibility for 8-string guitars and 6-string basses?

The specs for the 7 string overlord they have are a steal. I know not 8 but if I was looking for a 7 I would have gotten this one.

Yeah these are killer and priced really well for what you're getting.

I played one at NAMM and it was awesome.
