These do nothing for me aesthetically, but to each their own.
Yes, I realise they probably pre-date it, but the ones shown here somewhat put me in mind of that St. Vincent guitar (which also does nothing for me aesthetically).
Millimetric guitars.

Re: Millimetric guitars.
Hah, well I like the stV too, so that checks out.
There’s a sterling stV upstairs in my daughter’s room…I do hope she gets back to it someday.

Re: Millimetric guitars.
As Tom Petty would say, the waiting is the hardest part. I’m way psyched.

Re: Millimetric guitars.
I love Millimetric, their doublecut type shape really appeals to me for some reason.
This guy puts his to good use, really interesting how good the lipsticks sound.

I have to admit the close spacing of the controls on these guitars bugs me, as does the jack placement.
It’s a beautiful design, but ergonomics are important too.

Re: Millimetric guitars.
I kinda concur. I asked him to wire mine a little different. Switch up front, bridge vol, neck vol, jack. That’s it. If he doesn’t do it, I’ll just re-wire it at my leisure depending on how it works or doesn’t.

Re: Millimetric guitars.
Millimetric is on my short-list next time they open their books. I'd love to have a Canadian-made guitar and Frank Bros, while nice, costs more than my BiLT (which is rather jam-packed).
