Actually i never touch a drop of alcohol, so I'm not getting tanked, no. However, I can't speak for the other guys... 
I was hoping i could get in to visit the shop this week, but neither Shamray nor Stepanov have been available - it seems they have opted for the "full pull" of holiday time. Its been rumoured that one or more crafters, as well as Dima our chief completing specialist have spent some time working over the holidays. But I havent been able to confirm that yet!
For sure, the shop will re-open on the 10th (Tuesday) and Stepanov has confirmed to me that at least he shall be there then. There is a slim possibility i might be able to meet with Shamray sooner (Monday, or even the weekend) - so if that happens, then i will be in the shop to get some updates.

Howdy Michael,
Current Status? You guys have the SKB case and what not i suspect? Also, having heard about lucians complaints about the fretdressing (or lack there of) i would like to request that it be done before its sent thanks, if it hasnt been done already that is.
Looking forward to any updates.
Cheers.

Your guitar passed its final inspection / playtest TODAY.
What a NICE guitar!!!! A real pleasure to play.
All they have to do is clean it up, wipe all the fingerprints off, and pack it. If Shamray brings us the SKB case today, it shall be the NEXT GUITAR TO SHIP.
Look for pics in your email in a couple of hours...

Wonderful,
Great to hear the kind words about how the guitar plays. I think im experiencing an optical illusion with the action of the guitar. Haha, no one seems to notice what im noticing so im probably just seeing things, but if i look down the pic of the neck with the LED's, the action seems high from 9th fret onwards. Did that stand out to you at all? Meh, im sure its fine.
As for the notion of it being shipped soon, i must say Im very excited. Ive really been stingin' for it. Haha, i look forward to any updates you may have.
Pictures look great, thanks again for doing that for us mate.
Cheers,
Phil

yes, optical illusion - my camera lense has considerable 'fisheye', and even with a GOOD camera, those type of shots always look strange (perspective)

no news from Shamray!
On friday evening, he took your guitar away, promising to ship it out Saturday or Sunday. He is supposed to SMS the tracking number to me 'the minute it ships'...

mighty excellent. Thanks alot michael.
Quick question, how do i use the tracking number to find out where she is?
I just got a 'mail invoice' saying i need to go to a post office to pick up whatever it is. Im 95% sure its my tele body and not the shamray, but it was a nice thought

Theoretically, as soon as its cleared customs in Australia, you can track it in your local EMS parcel tracker.
But the tracking number is typically only useful 'after the fact'... generally the guitar will be at your door before you can find it in your local online tracking database.
You can see it in the Russian tracking database (http://garantpost.ru) as soon as its cleared customs HERE - but russian tracking doesnt extend outside of russia!

theres no record of that tracking number in the garantpost.ru's database...
I take it that it hasnt cleared customs there yet.
The wait continues
