NGD Daemoness Atlantean

[6stringerguy]

Here is a cool and somewhat impulse purchase, long story short I was planning on selling a few guitars and never really had any incentive to do so, then I see this bad boy pop up for up under £1k which is a crazy good price for a made in UK, Boutique guitar with Schaller and Hipshot hardware.
Made in 2010 ish
Specs:
Ash Body.
3pc Flame Maple Neck.
Walnut centre layer
Burl/Flame hybrid top
Schaller Floyd Rose
Hipshot Open Gear tuners
Ebony Fingerboard
Not sure on the pickups but from the previous listing the last two owners agreed they were BareKnuckle but not sure on the specific model.

Certainly an interesting shape.

Looks well made though.

Re: NGD Daemoness Atlantean

Is the lubrication different and is there certain maintenance for the exposed machine head tuners?

Re: NGD Daemoness Atlantean

Any idea on the weight? Looks heavy!!

That’s hot!

Re: NGD Daemoness Atlantean

Nice neck, but scarfing a quartersawn headstock sure looks unusual...

expected something a lil' less BBW from a name like Daemoness though

Not entirely sure to be fair.

It’s a little bit heavier than a ESP LTD EC-1000, if I had to guess I’d say 8 pounds but don’t quote me on that.

Re: NGD Daemoness Atlantean

It has received a few love marks and scraps over the years but considering its a UK handmade guitar with high quality components and it’s almost a third of the price a new custom from Dylan would be I can definitely live with them

I was curious, because I have an expensive guitar coming to me this Winter that has vintage style exposed machine heads too.

you need to clean and re-lube those once a year or so -depending on use and exposure

The tuning of this thing so far is rock solid, congrats on the incoming NGD.

That guitar looks like a shred machine,

Thanks, especially because it's a free NGD -the best kind!

Wow - gorgeous and unique axe!

Re: NGD Daemoness Atlantean

you don't need to clean & lube Hipshot tuners. they're made in such a way, with different metals rubbing on each other (I believe brass versus steel), which were tempered in an oil bath and not water, that they don't need that.

I dig it! Unique and gorgeous woods as well as a Floyd = WIN in my book. Congratulations!

Will most likely slap some 10-52 NYXLs in D and whack some Black Winters into it.
