I just got off the phone with John over at the "Mothership" and he said they are starting to come off the line as we speak. If fact he played one this morning. Of course he said it sounded WAY NICE. The first few that have come off the line went out to get reviews and for a display somewhere I think he said. They should start shipping to the dealers in about 2 weeks from what he has heard. He also said that Al has a bit of an "in" so he might get his before some of the other dealers if Ya know what I mean...

I wonder how many they will actually build. 100? 101? I know the press release said limited to 100 units but what if they didn't get orders for 100. Do they only build what they get orders for? I wonder if they are numbered in sequence like xx/100. That's great that they are starting to come out soon. Sadly, some will probably take longer than others.

Anyone know if the epaulets on the new 12fret are inlaid or mounted on top??

The epaulets are on top for the Adamas tops. The inlay/onlay is actually thicker than the top!

In all honesty, I had asked a similiar question and got the answer. Now I'm a @#$%#$% Expert!

Still waiting on an FRG #47!

maybe #1 of the #47 could be given Al for a review??

the Interview section of Member Access needs some new meat.

Hey Al, how much would the demo cost?? I'm game. :cool: :cool:

Hmmm, I wonder if anyone requested reissue serial number #47 from Al? That would sure be a special one, wouldn't it Al? Dave

PS - Let the record show that the claim for serial 47 was made at 12:01 AM on December 15th. From Amsterdam, local time. I've got the T-mobile bill to prove it.

Yeah, but does the bill detail the contents of the call? In the immortal words of Tricky Dick "If you didn't record it, then I didn't say it"!

Well, accorrding to the new Adamas Site, (and #21136), the specs that you were given were 1/16" off Of course it's usually easier to have the correct specs available AFTER they start shipping, but I'd go feed the "Birdie" some #10 shot if I were you.
