The first time we learned about MGH Guitars was through their ads for a couple of Blizzard Beast guitars on eBay. They looked nice and the starting bid was € 1, so worth some investigation. MGH turns out to be a German manufacturer who makes limited curtom runs and these looked like new old stock. The model was introduced in 2007 and this particular one was made in 2013, so not that old. The red one and the yellow one were sold first and this third, green one had our name on it!
MGH have spent a lot of time on the details of this guitar because it looks and feels amazing and well-thought-out. The scarf joint is nearly invisible, the way the holes for the neck screws are rounded off and the slight curve at the back of the lower horn: all very nicely done. The only improvement we could think of was a sunken jack input but that's all. And the body is surprisingly light, given that it is ash and wenge.
