Has anyone seen this guys guitars yet? They look great! Travis bean style but with the obstructures control symmetry. Glad to see more AL makers springing up.

I've been following on Instagram for a bit now. They look amazing!

That looks awesome! Especially with that headstock!

Where are they based? Going by the languages on Facebook, Italian? Finally an aluminium neck guitar builder in Europe?
I hope they are reasonably priced!

That headstock is pretty hilarious. Although, I'm not sure I'd want it open like that at the top.

Are there any other reasons besides aesthetics why it wouldn't be closed at the top?

Nah, not really. I mean it might be a weight thing, but it could have been easy to close it up. I guess he just wanted the "N"

Yeah, I don't think it would contribute much weight. He could just add a thin strip of aluminum across the top.

He could still achieve the "N" by making the top strip and the space between the nut and the tuners a different color (like black maybe).

Doesn't really diminish the beauty of the guitar, just thinking out loud. It's his sense of aesthetics he's working with, not mine.

Apart from the ridiculousness of it being an "N", I think it looks awesome? Would have looked even better if it was closed though

All I can think is that I would use it like a trident at shows

That's what I was worried about.

Now I REALLY want one!

I like the open N. It reminds me of the kramer aluminum headstock.

Yeah, I thought it looked pretty cool.
Checking the Facebook and it looks like homebody building these guitars is from Italy but may be living in Japan.

My odds of getting one... 0%.

Yeah the "N" borders on cheese. But if you name your company "nude guitars" what else are you going to use as a defining characteristic or "logo" that is total cheese?

So, I'm seriously not being a dick here, I'm genuinely curious because I feel like I'm missing something. What's the main allure for aluminum neck guitars?

They make things "heavy" in more ways than one.
