It is hand-made in Soul, Korea under Brian Moore quality control
3-way blade selector and two coil-tappings for each Seymour Duncan humbuckers (i think they're SH-5 for neck and SH-4 for bridge)
i love this kind of pickup-select design, you can get a similar tone from Fender Stratocaster to Gibson Les Paul when you split those coils in humbuckers
3 pieces Maple neck and 2 pieces Kalantas Mahogany body
one piece killer Quilt thin Maple top
Sperzel locking tuners
my i9.7 is vintage yellow color and black hardware,
it looks really damn cool !!!!
and i love the innovative output jack location design

Brian Moore i9.7 suits my playing styles such as Jazz, Rock, Blues and Heavey Metal (especially Nu-Metal)
i use Marshall JCM-800, ENGL TubeToner and Sansamp GT-2 preamp pedal
you can get very versatily tone from Brian Moore i9.7
it sounds very good due to two Seymour Duncan humbuckers

I use the i9.7 with a Johnson JM60 and a twelve inch speaker extension cabinet and a BBE sonic maximizer. The guitar as a whole has a real sweet tone that comes from the wood. It's not too noisy, and I play using the Rectifier settings on the Johnson. The neck pickup is absolutely amazing. It's really smooth and creamy. The bridge pickup has just enough power to not be too powerful. Sounds great playing my "Evil" type of music.

I purchased mine used on ebay and after taking it straight to my local Brian Moore dealer (Guitar Asylum in NY) I learned that there was a minor flaw (flat spot) in the neck around the third fret on the A string. I cannot say if this is why the original owner sold it or if it was some fault of his, but it existed.
Other than that, the finish was gorgeous and the guitar played amazing.

If I could give them a 50, I would. I contacted them regarding the flat spot, and even though I was not the original owner and had no warranty for service onthis guitar, they offered to fix the neck FREE OF CHARGE. This meant an entire fret job!!!
They definitely want every customer to be as happy as possible. I will play Brian Moore for life now!
