i was in new york 2 weeks ago and ran across this line, very innovative with the Lateral Compression Soundboard, where the strings are anchored directly to the soundboard....and the continually adjustable neck which is really amazing how one can move the neck closer to the strings without de-tuning.

by the way nice to see everyone...ive been helpin my dad out since mom is in rehab trying to get stronger for her upcoming operation,,, and ive been a little down hearing the news that my only son is being yanked out of college for a year tour in iraq.

thanks everyone for your prayers for peace!

Geneo,

Thank you to your son for his service. Is he National Guard?

As to Babicz, I've seen the name but know nothing about them. Someone with real info will be along shortly.

I am no so sure I buy into the mojo.
you need some string tension to drive the top

Interesting design, but not for me.

Best of luck with your mom and your son.

I've played them at guitar shows. Interesting concept of sound projection. Although I wasn't overly sold on them, I have to give the guy credit for the concept. It wasn't too long ago some guy produced round back guitars with a lyrachord back.
