You know you're niche when you have to announce your "First 6 string guitar"

[MoooseBlood]

Tosin dresses like he's a professor on a space ship that's about to do a coup d'etat to regain freedom for his fellow spaceshipians.

I misread the title and thought this was going to be a full hour-long 'Captain Meets' video, but sadly it's from the far less popular series 'Captain Meest'.

"Is this the body shape that you're familiar with?" "Uh yeah, I'm the one who designed it."

[flynn_]

Get to tosin for a captain meets proper video

[JunkieMonkey]

If Tosin starts making budget versions of this guitar I will cream

[yobhsiFehT]

I’m a very roots-y, blues-y alt-rock kinda guy, but I would play the crap out of that six-string 😳 Sometimes good design is just good design!
More power to him!

[juangermano]

Finally someone creating guitars that look fresh and new. No hate to all the companies that copy body shapes, it makes sense to do that. But...this is badass.

Can we get a proper Captain Meets Tosin Abasi? Ive been wanting this for ages! Also are we getting Abasi guitars in Andertons?

[EpictheEpicest]

"this is our first 6 string guitar" I lol'ed.

[MrDerekdef]

*Sees the guitar*

Me: yoooo

*Sees the price*

Me: noooo

[caloss]

After a long day at NAMM the guys from Anderton's like a little beer or 12, and upload their videos from the day .. Captains Meest....

NEW SERIES: THE CAPTAIN MEESTS INNOCENT GUITARISTS

[ealDealOfficial]

Hell yeah, Tosin. Going with domestic production. I'm sold.

[CaptnShred]

I wish this man all the success in the world. I’ll get one as soon as I can afford it

[mightyOmouse]

"See You soon!" ?! A hint maybe?

[No_Liver]

Nice video! Go chat with Mateus Asato if you can! Would be an awesome video

[MK-ozlf]

Man, him playing "Soraya" right there takes me back to 2010 with the first album on constant rotation. Yeah his guitars look like the head of a beluga whale but I think the future will showcase more and more offset designs. It's still cool IMO. The St. Vincent is getting a lot of traction.

[JoshuaConnorMusic]

A lot of people really don't see the point of custom made guitars it seems looking at these comments. Yes $3000 is expensive when you compare it to some factory made Ibanez, but that's not the point, the kind of people who are buying custom made guitars aren't expecting them to be under $1000, and they know what they're getting for that premium. Look at Strandberg or Skeverson, do they look like they're going out of business anytime soon? Believe it or not the market exists for these kinds of guitars, there's no way Tosin would have been able to start a company without first looking at the numbers and making sure he can run on a profit, that's business 101 folks.
You have highly customizable, high end ergonomic guitars, made in the US, at a price that can compete with other custom manufacturers, with a name like Tosin Abasi attached to it. You seriously think this business doesn't have what it takes to be successful?

Tosian is ok... Way too expensive... But understand his point... For going out on his own..
