I'm with kbo on this one. Those guitars are kinda, well, boring. I like a black guitar as much as the next guy, but $2,700? I'll build my own, thanks.
Oy shiksa, I've been "partnering" with Ken Warmoth, Seymour @ Duncan, Larry @ DiMarzio, umm, what's-his-name at Schaller for all these years and I didn't even remember them.... OMG I better stop this drinking huh? :help:
Hii--iiiay! I'm Nicky-P, and I'll be your PARTNER to-nite....

We're pretty excited that Nick Perri decided to use Warmoth for his necks and bodies. He obviously had a choice of vendors. He's got a lot of promo in the works coming out so it's pretty cool to ride that wave and get the Warmoth name out there some more. Working directly with him I can tell you that he's a super nice, humble, down to earth guy. I was kind of hoping at some point he'd show up here on this forum. Fun guy to chat with.

Nick won't be putting together guitars himself long term he's suspecting. His goal is to own a guitar building company, but all big dreams start small, like being a rock star. He's done pretty good with that one so his chances are better than most I would expect. :icon_thumright:

Most of the recent (post 1970 say) success stories of big companies that I know of start with the moderate price range, then go up? Paul Reed Smith is maybe the exception, but he's certainly looking to backfill with the CE guitars. The modern Schecter and Ibanez companies are almost diabolical in how successfully they've applied the McDonald's/Disney business model, get the kids on board - then the kids grow up. There are a ton of very expensive guitars made by small operations, down to the one-man ones - I thought that the economy was going to wipe that out, but every month Premier Guitar and Vintage Guitar has got another few who seem to be "making it." There's got to be well over fifty people popping out some variant on the Fender platform. Starting with two black guitars at $2700, I just don't know who's going to buy them - but them again, I don't know who's buying all the $30,000 old Fenders either. I need to meet some rich people....
Lol... Well, what I can say is that Nick is getting orders from paying customers. Multiple orders are being made and shipped. He'll probably be making changes, adding models, pricing adjustments and the like as it goes along like everyone does. But so far, so good.stubhead said:

Great for some, but I think most on this board prefer to assemble their Moths themselves. Know wha' I be sayin' :binkybaby:
