I have heard good things about the Bruntons, but mostly from people trying to sell them. There is a singlecut version of this one thats been in the Gear Page emporium for a while.

aside from the neck joint that guitar looks like a sex machine. id buy one. thats for sure. absolutely beautiful, great attention to detail, good looking website, seems like its full of WIN

*edit whats up with all the weird fucking holes? but yeah that neck joint just plain sucks. went from WIN to MEH for me right there. and the holes? who buys a guitar for 3k and drills holes all in it?

I assume the holes are from the bridge that was on it before it was swapped to an adjustable bridge

My favorite feature is the 24th fret and how it is partial.  Nice little curve on the end of the neck there.  That's just cool and practical.  Who plays the big stings on the 24th fret anyway.

I like the singlecut one better. Been eyeing it for a while....but it's not in the cards this time. Poor guy has been trying to sell it forever.

Wonky.  For 500 dollars more Paul will start on your guitar.
