I was the owner of that very guitar from 2020 to July 2023, when it was sold on consignment via a well known repairer. Amazing and awesome to see it on your channel! The electrics were modified while I had it, with the push/pull pots being added for some more tonal options. Beautiful guitar and sounded beastly, but I just never bonded with it due to the PRS scale length and low fretwire. It's 25.5" and Jescar 57110 SS all the way for me

I have one of these which I bought new. I think you missed the point that they are specially made for the customer. The pick ups, the hardware, the controls, and the neck shape are all decided by the customer. Mine has Lollar Firebirds, a wraparound bridge and simple controls (all gold plated). The neck was measured from my Gibson Firebird and then slightly narrowed. So, the neck is what the customer asked for. You also get to pick the book matched front from the wide variety of wood in the store. Mine looks very different from this example and I suspect no two tops are the same. The are supplied with no finish, just bare wood, but with a recommendation to oil the body. So that oil and polish would have been done by the customer, not Organic They are just gorgeous to own and play, especially if you are the first customer as it is as close to your personal ideal guitar as you can get in the real world.

I once made a rig that tested 1" vs 13" of string past the bridge - no major difference in tone. Tension is a function of string gauge, scale length, and tuning pitch (according to the online tension calculators). String length past the bridge or nut has no effect - other than the expected harp-like overtones of longer strings past the nut or bridge. Longer strings past the nut or bridge gives more total string length for stretching, which can make extreme bends a bit easier (non-locking bridges and nuts only).

I have been playing for decades, and I can testify that compound radiuses are absolutely the most comfortable guitars to play. When I build a guitar that I'm going to keep, I make it a compound radius. The steeper curve at the nut makes cowboy chords a lot more comfortable, but the flatter radius up high makes soloing and bending a lot faster & smoother.

Geometry is on your side. Strings spread from the nut to the bridge, which means it doesn't follow the shape of a cylinder... but a cone. And a cone has the tighter radius closer to the point, wider at the base. ie: Compound radius is the natural shape of the strings. I have three compound radius guitars - two 12-16 and one 10-14. Love them to death.

Organic inspired my own designs, I've wanted one for many years. As for the commentary on what it means to be handmade, I'm inclined to agree that the guitar is entirely handmade if you expand your perspective to include factors beyond the instrument itself. Someone had to 3D model the guitar by hand, the computer can't do that for you. Someone had to program the CNC. While the computer can aid that process, a real person still has to get hands on with it. The CNC did the majority of the carving on the guitar, but a person had to calibrate the CNC and position the blank in the machine. A person had to glue it up, install the hardware and frets, put the inlays on the fretboard, and set up the instrument so that it plays how it was designed to play. If that's not still handmade, then we need to rethink the use of planers, jointers, thicknessing sanders, bandsaws, and even power drills. If hands were integral to making every process happen, I'm of the opinion that the instrument is handmade.

I think maybe it involves a level of guitar-building-expertise by everyone who has a hand in building an instrument. There's obviously a massive gray area there, but I'd like to think that two guys in a garage who can both build guitars from scratch are crafting handmade instruments, whereas the assembly line is a group of people in which none have that ability and the sheer scale of manufacturing kind of precludes the handmade moniker. Maybe I'm gatekeeping, I'm honestly not sure.

I have one guitar with radius that varies from 9.5" to 14", one with fixed radius of 9.5" and one with fixed radius of 12". The 9.5" one needs slightly higher action so bends don't choke. The 12" one plays great all over the and the compound radium guitar also plays great across the neck. However, as someone that does their own set-ups, it is a *lot* more hassle to set up. The radius at the bridge needs to be even flatter than the end of the nexk to achieve the necessary conical string profile. Same with the frets when being leveled. Honestly, not sure it delivers enough functionality to make it worthwhile.

One of the things people don't know with magnetic stuff like that. There is also magnetic pick up tools where the magnet can move away from the pickup surface to allow it to come free so you don't have to pry the item off which could damage it. Odd that is still a common forget with how much magnets are in daily life. Even if you know about it you can still forget that you have something like that and can use it.

Marketing is only one of multiple prerogatives for business success. It is unfortunately also the one with the biggest impact on customer views. Well performed marketing can convince you that sh*t can in fact be gold, you need to replace your well working smartphone on a yearly basis, and in general, that product a is superior to product b, even if they rolled from the same conveyor belt in China. A successful company requires an output of consistently high quality products, a speckless accounting , a solid profit margin and employees that love and excell in their work and contribute to the corporate ID. Such a company can go viral, even without marketing, but to become really big, there is no way around it. I guess, the company didn’t survive because of a too little profit margin.

Gorgeous guitar, and if CNC made the low price possible, that is some awesome programming! I'd like to see a video on string tension, the difference of string length vs scale length, and the effect on tone. It seems to me that Short-Scale Bass Guitar Builders are not taking advantage of using Long String Lengths, and have instead opted for thicker string gauges, which produce compromised tonal results. A smart Guitar Builder/Designer would utilize the existing body length to optimize String Length while maintaining the best/comfortable playing Scale Length. That would be an interesting build. I've seen Piano Builders refer to the tuned string section that exceeds the speaking length, as the "duplex octave." Probably not practical for the guitar, but interesting none the less. 😉

If anyone was in the market for a custom or highly detailed guitar, I doubt Organic Guitars was on anyone's mind. On the custom work and details, should they have charged more? Perhaps. But I think the killer comes down to the timing, and how fickle the guitar market was/is/can be, them going all in on marketing without being really established.
