ĒMI 7 // CUSTOM // Carbon Fiber Quilt

ēmi ™ is basically the sibling to the Larada. It retains the elegant and ergonomic form of the single cut variant, while offering a more aggressive shape for those who prefer double cut-away body styles. The design is highlighted by the asymmetrical, subtle teardrop-shaped OVIFORM + - ™ neck profile.

The ēmi line features a range of Fishman Fluence pickup configurations, including a unique H-S-S configuration on the ēmi 8, designed specifically for this instrument. We even threw in a tone knob! While ABASI extended range instruments typically feature a multi-scale design with individual string bridges, the 'ēmi 7' is the answer for the players who prefer a uniform scale length and Gotoh 510 floating tremolo.

This ēmi 7 CUSTOM Master Series instrument comes with a unique carbon quilt top, black limba body, figured maple neck and wenge fingerboard. The look is completed with gorgeous white binding flowing through the body of the instrument and around the neck and headstock. Each piece of wood is hand-selected, with great attention paid to quality, weight, and overall resonance of the instrument.

Superb

Was lucky enough to get my hands on one of these. Came in pretty cold weather, but the setup was near perfect and barely needed to retune the guitar. The string tension with the 9.5-74 set is great without the low strings having any buzz or feeling noodly in any way. This thing is a blast to play. My other 7, for comparison, is a Schecter KM7 and this thing feels like a major upgrade (and I very much like that guitar). I use the trem quite a bit and the stability is outstanding without the need to tweak the tuning very often. The carbon fiber top is quite an amazing thing to see in person. Nothing I've seen in videos really highlights the chatoyance and the almost holographic way the thing reflects light from different perspectives. One little thing: it is a fingerprint magnet, but I microfiber it after extended play time. The black limba adds a little extra weight to the body relative to my Emi 6's body which I estimate is maybe about 1.5-2 lbs lighter, but it is still incredibly comfortable to play in classical position and when I'm standing. I will also say I much prefer the sound of Tosin's humbuckers over Fishman single coils (but both still sound amazing) and the voicings capture quite an array of different sounds (I play a lot of metal and blues). Guitars are the only luxury item I am willing to pay premium for and this to me was worth the cost. Used shop to snag this quickly, hopefully people who want these to actually play them can grab the future drops too instead of those price-gouging reverb scalpers. Thank you Tosin and everyone at Abasi Concepts!

Fortunate enough to be able to even look at this guitar, let alone own it

I was fortunate enough to be able to grab the Larada 6 Mystic Dream when it first released. I find myself in the incredibly lucky position to be holding this Emi7, specifically with the Carbon Quilt top.

It exceeds all expectations, craftmanship is top-notch, equivalent to some of the best in the business. It might just be the most comfortable guitar I have ever played, even better than most 6 strings. The Emi has been thought out so well and deserves the recognition it has been getting.

This is definitely special and I don't think I'm ever going to be able to part with this one easily.
