Awesome pics Darc!!!! Love that beast of a Blood Harvest!! Fucking bad ass!!! I also play a Blood Harvest model but mine is named the Black Harvest due to it being Flat Black!!! What neck and fretboard wood did you get on your Blood Harvest?? Mine is Birds eye maple with a Purpleheart fretboard and it is amazing!!! Best neck feel EVER!!!!

I am glad you enjoyed the photos. Flat black would be a great idea for a Blood Harvest, so good choice. My neck and fretboard is hard maple.

Hi, everybody. I’m Andreas, living in northern Germany, and being 47 years old I feel very old in this comunity... However: My musical taste is extreme diverse, ranging from (mostly modern) classic music over electronic (Residents) to simple Rock, Jazz, Surf-music, avangardistic noise and, of course: Metal which I love since my youth. My metal-odyssey started in the 70s with contemporaray hard-rock like Sabbath, Alice Cooper, Kiss (well you have to start somewhere...) and Motorhead. I explored the 80s with stuff like, Voivod, Cirith Ungol, Mekong Delta and Manowar (just joking! ), crossed the 90s with Cannibal Corpse, Meshuggah and Bathory and finally landed in the new millenium loving comtemporary Death-Metal and Drone-Doom. My faves at this moment are Mitochondrion, Dead Congregation, Impetuous Ritual, Ulcerate, Antediluvian and the almighty Sunn0))). I play guitar in a Post-Rock/Post-Metal-band. We do mostly instrumental music with heavy Surf and Metal influences. I’m not really a guitar-wizard but am constantly trying to get better (The „Guitar Grimoire“ is my teacher). I landed here at Ikon because I am constantly and despererately searching for innovative and killer guitar-designs and –constructions. But the luthier’s world seems to consist only of LesPaul, Strat, Tele and other clones instead of really new and daring ideas. There are only a few little companies that try something different like Madarozzo, Pheo and Minarik (yes, I know, Marc, you don’t like that „butt-ugly flame guitar“ but I do). And now Ikon! I love every single design, the choice of materials and that it is all done by hand. I am really nervous because I’m waiting for my first ever Ikon that Marc is building right now. I’m sure I’ll love it.

found the site by sheer happenstance, was advertised on a FX forum i'm a member of. chainsaw guitarist of 23 years and i'm 37 years old. at the risk of sounding jejune, i feel that guitars should sound like an army of chainsaws chewing thru a mountain of corpses, and mine always does. i fell instantly in love with what i saw here. i'm also into special effects, particularly theatrical fangs/creature dentures. i'll post pics if anyone gives a shit. i don't do stupid, subtle caps for the daytime-sparkle crowd, i do in-your-face fucking unholy beast fangs that cover the entire row of visible teeth.
have a death metal project i'm working on resurrecting called apocalyptic dawn. sound is a bit of disfuckingmember, emperor, and exofuckingdus. ya dig?
i will be acquiring an ikon. oh yes, i shall. just don't know which one yet, they are all incredible. working at ikon would be a dream job without peer, no doubt my work with theatrical casting materials would hold me in good stead in such work. that is all i fucking have to say at this point, i'm going to sleep whilst listening to disfuckingmember and i'm in a perpetual horrible fucking mood, save for the uplift of finding these incredibly artistic and beautiful instruments and having a wonderful wife who puts up with my psychosis. um, hello all.

Yo what's going on? I've been lurking here for some time just checking the guitars. I'll be saving up some money to buy one.....one day lol. Finally decided to join the forum..
I'm a huge fan of reptiles. Perhaps you'll design a reptilian guitar of some sort. My favorite right now is the Cthulhu by far. Phenomenal work you've been doing so far \m/
