Order Placed!

[MikeD]

I've been combing the internet for the "right" PRS that I wanted for months, either new or used. I found some that were close but not exactly what I was looking for. Nothing extraordinary, pretty mainstream actually.
If I'm going to outlay a considerable sum of money, I want no regrets. I want what I want.
So I came to the realization that the best course of action is to order one from the factory. I called an authorized dealer I found on this forum and placed my order and payed the deposit.

Now the wait.
Doesn't do much for my need for instant gratification but it'll be worth the wait I'm sure.

Did they quote you a time for the build?

 

[FennRx]

If you have the coin and the patience, that's the way to go.

2-3 months. Could be sooner though.

I have the coin, yes but I also have a wife. Hopefully she doesn't find out how much coin is going out :laugh:
As for patience, I don't really have it but I don't have a choice either.

I talked to a few dealers and was quoted different times by each one. I suspect that they shoot high with their ETAs. That way if it takes longer the customer isn't pizzed and is happy if it comes in sooner. Just my suspicion.

i was quoted 3 months on a refinish. Sounds like 3 is the magic number. IF it comes soon then that is a wow factor for the customer.
