Default New OM Build - Xiaofei Yew Guitars from China

Hi guys,

I'd like to show you my new Stika/Ebony OM build.

I'll really appreciate it if you can let me know what you think of it and please forgive me if I cannot reply your msg in time because of the Chinese Internet.

So this guitar has:

Stika Top
Ebony Back & Sides
Ebony Fingerboard
Ebony Bridge
EVO Fretwire



And the pics here:

Hi Xiaofei, I really love how unique your headstock, sound port, neck volute and bridge are!! And the woods used are really nice too

Looks great Xiaofei! I love when you post pictures of new builds on WeChat! You are over in Chongqing, right? I need to get over there and see some of your work first hand.

Nice work! The headstock shaping does in fact look Chinese to me, and I think that's a good thing. I like to see a builder's "mark" on their work. edit: . . . besides their logo.
