Got any pics of their guitars? Google was not my friend.
I think he's getting it a bit different but this is the beauty they have talked about on their fb page.

Yup. The neck will be pretty much the same, the only difference being that my controls will be different, and it'll just have two pickups. Also like I said, we're doing a different body. Their bodies bolt on, so you can potentially have more than one body.... They also explained that they can design these so that the neck plugs into the body sort of like a pedal, so you could have the same neck but have totally different control schemes in the bodies if so desired.

Oh wow!
That thing is like flashy as hell but somehow restrained and utterly tasteful.

I've custom ordered everything from amps to pedals to guitars and the wait is always pretty brutal. My EGC was by far the worst at just over a year. I think the key is don't custom order something you need right away or can't do without. That way you can use the shit you've always used and attempt to forget about the custom order on occasion, easing the pain of waiting.

I put a down payment on a customized Verellen Meatsmoke last night. We are still working out the color details to see if he can do what I am asking and for a reasonable price. I have a feeling it will be more than I want to spend. But, he quoted me a 6-8 week build time nonetheless. So, it will be a long 2 months.

I got a custom guitar coming, I think not having it all paid at once will make it go by a little faster. I just have to distract myself in the time being

deets pls
i agree. i have an order with Harvester and I was gonna pay it off really early but i decided to spend the money on other crap so i'd just be distracted stressing about being able to afford it rather than feeling entitled to a completed instrument as soon as possible

On March 3rd it will be my one year anniversary waiting for a pedal... yeah a single pedal. I am pretty patient, but I am kinda on my last leg at this point... I am totally turned off custom shit. Maybe if I was some famous recording artist I would have had it by now... I was actually told that he totally forgot and that it fell off his radar, of course he meant it in the nicest way possible, but still. Geesh.

Fuck
that noise. If it's someone who is supposedly in business then that is total bullshit.
