Crikey!  I know photos can be deceiving, but I sure hope the top colour is not that orange!
The previous pics have a much nicer colour.

no, its not really orange... just some odd exposure effects (shade on a cloudy day seems to fool my camera as badly as the shop lighting)

im hoping for some sunshine, one of these days! :)

Reds are notoriously difficult to capture accurately on digital camera. The LP Jr they made for me looks nothing like it does on the pics here, but in a good way. I wouldnt worry if you don't like what you see, the guys know their finishes.

Agreed ! Any guitar will look a heck of a lot better in real then it does on the pictures, specialy the ones taken in the yellowish shop light. So if you like what you see now you are gonna love what you see when you open ur case :)

I really like the burst. in every pic its different, but equally lovely.
but Ben, do you like the burst? i remember that you once posted
here, that it was too orange.....do you like it "now" (the newest
pictures, i mean).

just curious: are the frets of this guitar also bound? and if so;
how much would that cost extra? (then i know how much i have
to save extra for the guitar....i also decided not to have
piezo....but hey, thats for later concern...)

Nimrod,
Yes I very much like the colour of the guitar.  My concern was that the natural light used in the "orange" pic was representative of the true colour of the finish.  Out of all the pics Michael has sent me, only one has been orange, so I assume that it's simply an anomaly.
Olav - Great to hear from you!  You'll definately get a chance to play some of your Norwegian death-metal on it :lol:.  Drop me an email to let me know what you're up to. 
Thanks, everyone, for the compliments on the guitar!

As Michael stated earlier, it is tentatively scheduled to ship on Sept.15 :)
Right now, the back of the headstock is being corrected to how I originally specified -- having the serial number "ink stamped" on like yours, Steve.  As Petty said, the waiting is the hardest part.
I'd really like to have a pic of the two of our sister guitars together after they are completed!

Nimrod,
The Shamray logo and serial number style were incorrect, and so are being changed to how I originally specified.  Michael has informed me that the correction is finished, and now I'm patiently waiting for more pics and updates :).

haha, thanks ben ;-) but i like so many colors and guitars, BUT
as long as they are simple. a simple burst, like yours, or like the
one i will post in a few secs, or like lucians les paul, or just
black. like it all, but not the PRS kinda tops and colors...

www.janakkerman.nl

you won't be able to read it i think. but his les paul is quite
remarkable. it used to be an old les paul personal, but it got
wrecked, and a dutch luthier reconstructed it to be jan's
personal friend, so to speak. i really like this color.

Yeah Steve, I was playing out today and was thinking how nice it would be with the new guitar.  It's been a while since I've received a photo update (I was spoiled with the weekly emails).  According to Michael there should be some pics forwarded shortly.:)

Update:  There is no update :fou:
No change in guitar status for a month and a half (waiting for artwork correction).  Last word was that a refinishing may be required in order to correct the artwork error.
My shipping date has come and passed without anyword from Shamray or Michael.
Frustration and concern...

The guitar has managed to find it's way back from the logo correction department :), so hopefully it will be completed soon.
Note:  The scruff-ring will disappear after final laquering.
Any update on a shipping schedule?
