hmm...
nice to see the progress. but is it possible that you've been mistaken with the neck-pictures too? caus i ordered AAA maple neck and fretboard. no rosewood.
but i'm shure there's a simple explenation for this :)

oops!
sorry, but i mistakenly labeled those neck pictures CS-0034, leading Shamray to mistakenly post them on this thread! 

I think your neck probably hasn't been started yet, since last i heard the shop stock is completely depleted of AAA maple suitable for necks. I can't really confirm that for a few days since we are into the dreaded "russian may holidays" (may 1-10, more or less) but i will try to get into the shop on wednesday or thursday and get things sorted out.

i'm okay with that!
i mean i'd rather wait some weeks longer for my guitar than getting worse neck-wood...
of couse there are al lot of strat orders right now, couse there's no better clean sound out there than the sound of a strat neck single coil, which souds vintage and modern at the same time. thats the great thing about strat-like guitars! i love them!
and i'm shure you guys do a great job!

When i get some news, you will be the FIRST to know.. i ask about every guitar every day, but lately its pretty rare that I get any meaningful answers from our 'shop-manager' Stepanov about exactly whats holding up the progress. Last month i heard they were just waiting for bridge and pickguard, and then Shamray told me a couple of weeks ago that he had found and purchased a nice bridge. (the one i told you about) Since then i have heard or seen nothing about the bridge, and there has been no hint of further activity on your beautiful guitar. (although really there is nothing left to do until a pickguard can be found)

I know they still havent received the (now 4 month overdue) pickguard plastic shipment from the USA - but we are stuck at this point since there are no domestic suppliers here in Russia. I'm tempted to go order you a pickguard off ebay right now - but its 3-4 weeks to get anything over here by air-mail, and by that time we surely will have completed your guitar...
