Holy cow, this is my second Emi, but now in a 6 string. Abasi has nailed the design, fit and feel with the Emi model. Everything is just fast and smooth. I was iffy about the sss config but these Fishman Single Coils do it all. I have nothing at all to say about this guitar that could be a con. The woods are beautiful, the finish is beautiful, and the pickups are phenomenal. I’m in love with this guitar and I’m a 7 string guy. The Emi 6 brought back my love for 6 strings and introduced a pickup config I love that I have always stayed away from.

I'm stoked this pedal is on the market. I just wish it was available 15 years ago.

Truly unbelievable how awesome this guitar is. Just stop what you’re doing, invest, and never look back.

Been playing for more than forty years, I will say that this guitar has a different feel and balance (in a positive way) than any other of the many guitars I’ve owned,
especially when it’s played in a sitting position. The signature Fishman Fluence pickups are the biggest difference between this and what I am used to. Huge tonal pallette.

The guitar lays very nice, and is easy to play
The sound of the Basswood body with the Fishman pickups is delightful.

Very versatile pedal. Just simply a good gravelly sounding distortion. Perfect.

Easy to fine tune and extremely versatile. This is my favorite distortion pedal I’ve owned. Well worth it.

FANTASTIC Instrument, Koreas best and its US Fishman fluences really with her erogonomic shape and compound radius neck make this a truly new age guitar and design. THX Ryan

Very dense but not that high gain distortion as I might say. Very cool modern tone and you can easily get a bunch of different tones because there really is a lot of headroom to work with the gain nob. 9/10 easily

It’s like an inspirational paradise. I’ve never felt a guitar that is this fast. The bar is always in tune even when pressed down super aggressively. I super don’t regret buying this and am really stoked to add it to the collection. I’m obsessed with these abasi guitars for sound, playability, and ergonomics. I’m trying to switch all my guitars to abasi’s at this point.

I play with my gain really high and having all the pickup options is so awesome. It feels different than the larada but so right that I can flip between the two seamlessly,

So I’ve been dreaming about owning this guitar since it was being pitched as a prototype with Ibanez. I thought the shape and general aesthetics of the guitar were unique and ergonomic similar to strandbergs. So recently I finally had the funds to purchase a high end guitar and looked no further than getting a b-stock 6 string Larada! (Though I still have yet to figure out what makes it a b-stock)…so I have to say that this guitar has surpassed my expectations of finally playing one. Sure we got stellar YouTube reviews to go off of, but I’ll say that nothing compares to actually playing this special guitar. It is by far, one of the most versatile instruments I’ve ever played! From high gain, to clean or overdriven tones, guitar modelers or tube amps, plug-ins or even unplugged…this guitar truly shines. My only gripe was that I was too broke to purchase one sooner, but thank the heavens that I finally got the chance to own one. It is well worth the high price tag and it will remain my main work horse for nearly everything I play. Cheers to tosin and everyone else who has made this guitar into reality!

Before I made the purchase, I was worrying about the single-cut design on the guitar because I had never played a single-cut guitar before and I was worried about how my thump would feel when I played it. The guitar just arrived today, I say that my thump took a few minutes to get used to it but the guitar is so easy to play and light. I had the Abasi Fishman pickups in my 8 string before so I already know how it sounds and it is such a great pickup. If I have to say something I was not happy about it would be the shipping carrier UPS, they messed up the trailer arrival time so the shipment was delayed and then they sent the guitar to the wrong shipping center so which caused the delay again. I waited 8 days until I got the guitar and all I can say is that the wait was worth it.

I’ve owned pretty much every top tier 7 string on the market (not saying it to brag but I love to try new guitars so I can compare this to a lot of great instruments) and I have to say this has blown my mind. 🤯

When I went to NAMM 2022, I caught a glimpse of the orange Emi 7 and I fell in love. As much as I love mulitscale and baritone 7s, I have always had a fondness towards a 25.5” straight scale seven string. It also MUST have a trem.

This is a tone MONSTER and work of art. The neck carve varies slightly depending where you are on the neck and it’s so freaking comfy. The body contours to your own and is super lightweight. To top it all off the wood selection and figuring on the neck is outstanding. The guitar resonates very nicely and the satin/gloss mixed finish is actually pretty cool. I chose the yellow because I like loud guitars and I’m not disappointed. The double cutaway design is flawless and allows us thumb draggers to wrap the neck.

I could take or leave the Fishman pickups, imho they lack “oomph” when plugged into the Quad Cortex but I also haven’t been able to find time to dial new presets in either so it could be that I need to tweak my settings more. On the other hand they sound freaking MASSIVE through my Diezel Herbert, and I mean face melting!!!

Tosin and the guys knocked this design out of the park and definitely have a lifetime customer from me!

Received my Latte’ emi 7 yesterday and was sincerely floored. I own a few Larada’s and in my opinion for the price this is one of the finest crafted guitars I have ever played. Cheers to Tosin, Ivan and the Abasi team. Complete pro set up out of the box, the fluence pups sound as if they have been tweaked to a new perfection, especially the single coil modes. The body’s silhouette is original and classically comfortable. Neck radius is perfect even for me, a 6 String player. Thanks Abasi, I was lucky to get my hands on this guitar.🙏🏻
