I have at least one that still needs a home so if anyone is interested let me know asap. Hmm... I could always use a backup... |

Al is just stopping the special requests before they all start coming in.....can't blame him. Guess I will go back to my original thoughts and call Al Tuesday or Wednesday and officially ask him to ship mine out next Monday. |

Opportunity here in that Al has one IN STOCK that has not been sold. If you have been considering, available for instant ship. After this one has been sold, might be a wait until made. |

Location: NJ | Well the guitars arrived and quickly were inspected, billed, relabeled and shipped out.
Incredible instruments. There will not be an unhappy person that owns one of these beauties.
If you play a cowboy chord, the guitar just BOOMS. if you play up on the frets the notes are crisp and clean and have a fantastic tonality.
One left if anyone is interested e me. |

Al thanks for putting up with our ribbing,
Stephen, I'll let you know how it sounds, case you don't want Al to even bother shipping yours Monday. |

Al, thanks for getting them for us.
Stephen, we'll have conference calls and serenade you while you wait.
At this distance, starting out today or tomorrow ground, the shipment will be riding in the truck and not even have an arrival scan at the destination hub until earliest Sunday.
Why don’t you let Al ship yours out tomorrow? |

Location: Latitude 39.56819, Longitude -105.080066 | Well, I am bummmed. Had to actually work today to pay for my toys and expected to call Al about shipping me out next Monday to avoid the weekend sleepover.......
Alas....got the UPS notification that it has already shipped out. Figured I had until Weds....snooze you looze.
Al, don't sell the last one until mine is safely in hand....that way I can get the last one as my replacement unit. With my history with UPS and weekend shipments I give it a 50/50 of arriving in good condition!
Jeff....you're a turd! I will expect a full review on April 7th. |
