Ups delivered my Custom-Custom Balladeer this AM. Removed cased guitar from shipping box to inspect for damage but will not open case until I get home from work. The clock watching begins. I suspect this will be one of the longest afternoons of my life!
Expect report tonight and possibly even a few pics if I can figure that out.
Tick, tick, tick, tock....
With anticipation and ainxt(SP),

Location: Alberta, Canada | mntnbikerfred, Lanaki, thanks. I think so too. Man she's been a long time away from home.
I was concerned about the tone/sound as was waiting her return, but I'll tell she is unbelievable. And does she ever ring. I've fallen in love all over again!

No need. It sounds incredible...way beyond what I hoped for. I was anticipating at least several years to get close to what I got. I'm very pleased and impressed by what the Mothership can do. Almost unbelievable!
