Another picture I got yesterday. The body binding is being glued on. At first I got really nervouse becouse I wanted a black binding and this was white, but It was all fixed... And since the binding is three layer it will be a small white layers between the main black binding.

STATUS REPORT:
Today I couldnt find 5150 on Dudnik's bench... so i suspect that perhaps he had it over in the other building (for its first sealer coat of lacquer).
Will have a more definitive report on Monday!

What does that mean? I'm going to collect the guitar myself, so if I have a spot on the shipping list it can be given to the runner up... Is this maybe a missplaced replay? I am more curius about the status on the guitars buildprosess, anything new?

OOPS! Shamray put you on our ship list - he didnt realize you were coming in person. That bumps up somebody, somewhere.
No progress on your guitar lately, in fact i havent seen Pasha in the shop for a few days. Should have a full status report on FRIDAY (Shamray is still working on building all the work-flow timelines...)

That looks sweet. The color is great, and that bird awesome. When will you pick it up?
Автор: Kaspar
Тема: Re: CS-5150 - Shamray Custom Shop "KASPAR KUSTOM" for Kaspar Skjulhaug (Norway)
I will arrive in Moscow in the morning 2.june and leave with the nighttrain back to St.Petersburg on the 3. So the pick up will be during this visit... =) I won't not be in Moscow that long, but you, or anybody, recomend something I should do?
Would be cool to go see some live music... but i'll guess Moscow isnt the city to just stumble around not knowing where to go, especially as a tourist.

While yer here, try to tour the KREMLIN! Its a nice all day excursion, if you want to see everything

Тема: Re: CS-5150 - Shamray Custom Shop "KASPAR KUSTOM" for Kaspar Skjulhaug (Norway)
Yeah, and do hire a guide if you can find one (the serious ones have badges). Not only will they tell you things about the different buildings etc., they will also take you past every queue to the different attractions, which was a great advantage. But wasn't it a school trip? Might have to follow their schedule then...

Тема: Re: CS-5150 - Shamray Custom Shop "KASPAR KUSTOM" for Kaspar Skjulhaug (Norway)
It is a school trip, but only a part of my class is going to Moscow and the teacher that are with us is very easially persueded and not so strict... so I dont think there will be much problem to work out a partially own schedule... =)
Kremlin is noticed, though I think thats part of the "official" schedule... and I will tip my teacher about this guide thing... thanks
but where do you go if you wont to se live music in Moscow? Is the scene very "hidden"?

In Russia, the GOOD bands are very well-hidden, yes! You can see plenty of awful pap masquerading as 'top russian artists', so beware!
But if you go to the B2 or Apelsin clubs, you 'might' get lucky and catch a good show. If you can see 'Jazz Lobster' or 'Dolphin' ( both very progressive, modern, heavy, musical rock-based ensembles, despite the odd names) it will be worth your time.
you might want to keep an eye on the gig calendar here:

Hi
I am in a internet cafe. In St.Petersburg and traveling to Moscow by train to night. I have recived all the info on locating the shop. Thanks Micheal... but I havent recived any pictures and I must admit that I am a bit worried that the guitar isnt finished. You kill this bad feeling once and for all and tell me that the guitar will be finished tomorrow? That would have made my day... Cheers and see you tomorrow

Hi, Im now in a small village in Estonia where I
have dug up a computer with internett
connection... =)
The guitar is finished and passed russian
customs. And Im very happy =). I havent had a
chance to try it on a decent amp yet, but it
sound very nice "acoustic", but when I made a
"jack plug" out of a minijack cable and to
convertors and connected it to my minicube it
generated a sweeping hiss, but I suspect that
its becouse of the stereo plugs and the bad
connection... Any Ideas what might have coused
this problem?

Do not warry. Use usual mono-jack and there will be no problems.

Тема: Re: CS-5150 - Shamray Custom Shop "KASPAR KUSTOM" for Kaspar Skjulhaug (Norway)
I thought so =), but when I tried the same cable later in the evning yesterday I had no problems...
The Guitar shines still after a couple of hours play time. I really looking forward to try it on my own tubeamp at home, but unfortanatly Im not home before the 10. june...
I have to thank you Alex for making the pickup as easy as possible, even though some problems did accure =), In which adventures doesnt problems accure? When you are in the middle of it It can be a bit frustrating and stressing, but as long as the end is good all is good.
I really enjoyed the drive to the Red Squer =)
I will come back with a more feedback on the guitar when I have had a chance to test it at home .
Cheers
