You beat me to it Some lovely instruments this week, including a stunning 7-string.

Impressive! Not just the lovely guitars being produced, but the expansion of the facility - a lot of forward planning happening there.

I’m delighted that they have achieved enough success to be able to undertake such an expansion - a testament to the fundamental excellence of the product.

Great to see the return of the Shipping Videos and that a carbon fiber guitar business appears to be doing so well....

Do the pinless bridges have holes on the front of the bridge (I couldn't tell) or do you have to insert the string from inside the guitar, coming in through the opening by the neck?

It's top-loading.

The holes on the pinless bridge are big enough to insert the ball end from the top as a standard bridge, and then you pull them into a slot that is only wide enough for the string itself to get through.

I ordered a custom X30 with string-through bridge where I had to actually insert the strings from inside, but it was a request from my side.

Thanks. I couldn't tell how that works. I was thinking it would have something like the Breedlove pinless bridges, but that makes a lot more sense to me.
