Michael has kindly placated me with a few new pics :)
This one was taken with a flash to accentuate the figuring.
Frustratingly, the serial number has yet to be painted on :fou: And so the waiting continues...
At least the guitar looks nice.

I was talking to Stepanov about it yesterday, and he says it should be ready for testing this week. When do you get back to Ireland?

Hi Michael! I will be back from the Himalaya at the end of November. Hopefully you'll be able to ship the guitar so as to arrive around that time. If you could post some pics here, it'd be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Is the shipping date still Saturday (tomorrow)?
Will you be able to play-test it first?
My oxygen-starved brain would love a final photo shoot before shipping! Thanks again!

Pics coming this afternoon...

I just called Stepanov and he said its already been completed, so play-testing will happen this afternoon as well. He says the plan is still to ship Saturday, assuming Shamray brings us the case for it (he is supposed to be picking one up today...)

Ben you poor thing, I can't believe you haven't got a picture yet. Hang in there, when you play it all else is forgotten. I did a gig with CS1959 Friday and the audience loved it. My band mates said don't ever bring another guitar.

Well, its just "The Luck Of The Irish", I'm afraid.

They had already started completing work, when Stepanov suddenly noticed that in a certain light, at a certain angle, you could see the faint outline of the lacquer work around the 'back of headstock logo'. Changing that logo has proven VERY problematic, and unfortunately its got to go back for further lacquer work TOMORROW. I will email you some pics shortly!

Re the lacquer problem: Of course, it's best that it's done right, but how long is this issue going to delay the guitar?

I'm not sure... if they started work on it yesterday, then it should be back in for completing by Friday, i expect. I will be checking on it tommorrow when i visit the shop.

Thanks for the compliments, Bill.

I have been informed that the pots have been "found" and that the guitar should be ready for completing and play-testing on Monday.

Still at the top of the shipping list as well, so I'm hoping it will ship early next week. Keeping my fingers crossed...

I don't know - i wasnt able to reach Shamray by phone today. Its was "supposed" to have shipped quite some time ago, and Shamray was "supposed" to have SMS'd me the tracking number right away.

But its 'radio silence'... :-(
