Joined: April 2008 Posts: 15 Location: Tampa, FL | I ordered mine a couple weeks ago, and a guy called saying that I was number 11 on the list, and they were only expecting 10 more before production ended. Here's hoping that a credit card doesn't go through. And this sucks, because I was getting it as my guitar for the rest of my life, as a gift for my graduation. Damn. Does anyone know where I could get something to attach to the guitar like the Koa if I have to buy a non-SW 2078T? Thanks. | ||

If it turns out that you do miss out on this one, the next "can't pass it up" type of deal is right around the corner. Stick around here... keep your ears to the ground, and I'm sure something will come up that will be just as cool. And if nobody else has said it yet, welcome. P.S. Your name is really, really hard to type. If you keep it the same, expect to be reffered to with some kind of nick-name real soon. | ||

I think it would look great added to a regular Elite T . i've considered that option also. it will be best to decide once i have it in hand. i'm hoping they've got the holes aligned properly... and i want to maintain the top's vibration as much as possible. | ||
