So let it be written, so let it be done.

Looks like the result of what happened when EBMM told their new DEI hire in the wood shop to cut out a “classic Strat” shape.

I'm about 95% on board. That one angular part on the body looks like it could be uncomfortable if it hits you in the wrong spot.

It does sort of reminds me of a 12 string electric I build about a decade ago.

Definitely a strandberg 7
Now that I put Tim Henson pickups in it, there is nothing that it can’t do

AI Overview



While the EBMM Kaizen is primarily designed for modern and heavy rock, its electronics and exceptional clarity make it a surprisingly good and versatile option for neo-soul. Its "super smooth playability" and versatile pickups can help you achieve the soulful, articulate tones characteristic of the genre, though it will not produce the same sound as a traditional neo-soul instrument like a semi-hollow guitar or a Strat.

Picked one up at a GC, it was pretty cool. Wasnt a fan of the fan frets however, but the rest of the guitar felt pretty good.

Especially that

 

[itsme]

A bit too clunky/ugly for me. Strandbergs are outright hideous

 

[cobrahead1030]

I think these are cool, I’d love to play one.

We saw them live last year, they look better in person.

Except look cool.

Except look cool.

I don’t like it but I accept it.

They actually look less dumb while being played though
