Congratulations Goran, on the birth of your THIRD new Shamray Custom Shop instrument (serial number CS 1980)!

We will post pictures of it's construction-in-progress from time to time here in this thread.

For the curious, here are the specs on CS 1980:

7-string Sushkov ORPHAN with futuristic styling (the guitar formerly known as CS-0100)

Maple/mahogany 5-piece set neck.
Russian Swamp Ash Body
Rosewood fretboard with elaborate "tribal" inlays
7-string Floyd, all black schaller hardware.
Custom wound Duncan Custom Shop 7-string humbuckers (hand-made by Seymour himself!)

Special "faux-rosewood" art finish under nitro lacquer (Entire guitar painted to match fretboard!)

It was more than halfway built when the client had a cash crisis (not an uncommon situation for a musician...)

Hi goran good night :)

Yes Sushkov was the assigned crafter to my guitar also :D from
the work i have seen from him he leaves me all crazy to see the
guitar in the progress hehe. He is really a gifted master of
masters in guitar craftmanship.

And all of your 3 guitars look so great. When u get them played
and recorded let me know :D really want to check your sound if
u have a band.

this guitar is so organic and it feels incredibly good to play....very ergonomic...there is something special about the neck...it feels so alive...hard to explain that...it's one of those "impossible-to-explain" feelings ;) ...
this is definitely one of the best 7 stringers in the world ....

all ratings: 10

and the oscar goes to: :)

dmitri sushkov (performance)
michael walker (stunts)
aleksander stepanov (producer assistant)
aleksandr shamray (producer)

they made this guitar possible ;)

Nice! How does those "gearless" tuners work? I'd guess you'd gave to be a bodybuilder to be able to turn them, but I sort of trust that Iæm wrong about that. ;-)

goran



actually they are very comfortable to use but since the strings are locked i don't use tuners so much (only when i change the string(s))...
i choosed those tuners only because they would suit this headstock better then any other tuners...
