It looks like u are getting a guitar similar to mine and Marco's. I’m getting “the X that should not be” and Marco has the "Rosewood X". Welcome to the family.

Hey! Where´s the tone & volume controls? Are they built in or something? How are they controlled then?
Автор: HACK
Тема: Re: CS 0060 - Shamray Custom Shop ‘BURNING SUN” for Marcel Havenith (Germany)
The holes haven't been drilled yet for the controls...

Allright, I got a little suspicious when I saw that... But isn´t that among the "first" things to do on a guitar? I´ve never seen a guitar that´s just waiting on the controls to be installed, to be completed. But this is a really gorgeus guitar though, among my absolute favourites.

no, drilling holes for the controls is always among the LAST things to do!
We route the control cavities early on, but drilling holes for controls, switches, bridge posts, machine heads (etc) is always done at the END, after the lacquer is on and polished (or oil and wax is applied, in the case of this instrument). That way we dont have the hassle of removing finish from the holes - thus assuring all the holes are clean and precise.
