Egan 7 string fanned fret acoustic guitar
guitarz.blogspot.com:
I feel this will be a very polarizing post. You will either love this Egan 7-String acoustic or you will hate it. I really want to love it, and even though it's an incredible work by a very talented luthier I find myself on the side of hate.
It's just too much. There is a lot going on here with multiple wood choices, pinstriping, binding, and I've never been a fan of back and side woods not matching.
Check out the video at the link to hear the builder play this odd duck. It honestly sounds quite nice. Yet, it's clearly not for me.
Am I alone here?

Have You Ever Seen A More Out-of-place Headstock On A Guitar?
guitarz.blogspot.com: I take one look at this 1980s B.C. Rich acoustic guitar and can't help but demand "What were they thinking?" A pointy headstock? On a dreadnaught? Madness! I'm not averse to 6-in-a-line headstocks on acoustic guitars. Fender,...
