Is this happening on a specific note, if so what note on what string? Is it across all notes?

So... I did end up receiving my guitar!! Last Friday!! Unfortunately the shipping company must have drop kicked it because the guitar came in damaged... We have a claim in right now. Switch tip is bent over and the finished chipped right in that area. But the guitar is gorgeous!

Thank you haha I will say this much though, I won't do this again. It's been quite the wait so far and I believe we are coming close to it being finished. We are officially at 24 months from the original ETA. So fingers crossed this time we will be seeing the guitar! Next time definitely getting...

Man unfortunately no. We got a new ETA of mid October. One day it will come in haha I hope.

I was wondering that on the guitar I reserved. I didn't put the order in, the store had already had it ordered I just put my money down to reserve it. But being that it's Cobalt Blue I thought maybe they do runs of them so mine is in-line for when another "run" of Cobalts are being done? Who...

Definitely been longer than I was expecting haha at the time it seemed the quickest option. The dealer has been great to work with and they stay on top of updates for me so I am waiting it out. There have been a few Cobalt Special Semi Hollows out there now that are tempting but I'm gonna stick...

It can be a long wait, I reserved a pre-order Special Semi Hollow in Cobalt blue in July of 2021. Original ETA was later that year. It's been a long wait but I'm confident it will get finished up soon. FYI Cobalt Blue is discontinued so if one of those catches your eye it would be worth grabbing.

Needing some help with specs and general opinions on 245s specifically around the 2008 year. A 2008 245 was offered (potentially) as a trade for a Mesa JP-2C I am selling and need some help. Also if the dollar value between amp and guitar is the same how do you all feel about trading an...

Oh man sorry to hear that, hopefully they can get this resolved for you. They are great instruments for sure and a great company.

I read in the other post your Tremonti is on shaky ground, not loving it?

Does the circuit board have a serial number maybe? Maybe it's documented what board was used in the amp. Sorry to hear about this man, that's a bad situation.

Oh man that is awesome! Love the top on that one! Congratulations

I'd say you can think of grey black as trans-black and will have a black back, charcoal will be a much lighter grey with high contrasting black like burnt charcoal brickets and a natural back, charcoal burst will be charcoal with the black burst edges and black back. Charcoal will be the only...

Unfortunately I have never tried the \m/ pickup, but it sounds like people have good things to say about that one.

I have no experience with the 594 to offer there but I think feel is going to be a big part of whether the pickups work for you or not. Tone wise I believe they will be there but will they provide the feel you are looking for. I really like hot ceramic bridge pickups for metal, I'm so used to...
