Have you guys seen the Reclaimed CE and Semi Hollow Vela?

[izzymanpo]

Hey Shawn, as someone that's still awaiting a CE from the next (hopefully September) batch, I really appreciate the updates and photos you post, keep up the work !!

 

[Boogie]

Me too! I've got some shoes lined up and waiting for the NGD!

So, was that one yours??!!

Nope. Still patiently waiting. Wish I wouldn't have paid Sweetwater for it already. I could have snagged one by now.

I`m confident it`ll be worth the wait. Save the best for last.

Get one anyway. What's another guitar?

Good point! I should just by one and turn the one I already paid for into a Vernon Reid Vela!

Keep the faith fellas, keep the faith!

Ok, I am off the ledge!

 

[xjbebop]

Thnx for the pics Shawn!
I too am patiently (??) waiting for mine to arrive / ship from Sweetwater. The last ETA I heard was around late September... does that sound about right??

fwiw, I've got a folder with all the 'preview' pics saved from since this madness began, just in case I'm able to match mine up with a 'before built' pic.
Even if not, it's still a great collection of pics...

btw, I'm still very curious about the oddball peeking out from the end of this line...

?????????????????

 

[charliefrench]

And a great thread too!

That last one isn't a RL, it's a regular mahogany S2 model.

Aha! mystery solved!

 

[vchizzle]

I'll throw mine in here. Gonna get some playtime in since I'm off work today.

 

[shinksma]

Nice one, vchizzle!

I was playing some slide on mine last night - and I never play slide, but one of the our new songs (still in arrangement stage) sounds like it needs a slide guitar lead, and I think I've got something down that pretty good!

I still wonder if I should pick up a RL CE...

You should already know the answer you'll get from this group.

A little spammage never hurt anyone (except their wallet).

I'm headed to NashVegas for the next couple of days, so no Vela for a while.

 

[xjbebop]

Yummy!!
