On the subject of patience, you have not read the whole thread. The order is now cancelled.
From what you say I have been misled. The dealer also told me that wood stock had been an issue. It would have been nice to get any kind of genuine explanation over the course of the last 15 weeks. I was not impatient, but grew tired of being continuously fobbed off but otherwise ignored.
The fact that Andertons are promised further reclaimed models (I have spoken to them and they expect four CE24s) before fulfilling GV's order added greatly to my misgivings about the whole affair.
I'm sorry you feel as though you were given misleading information, but I believe it was simple misunderstanding without malice. Orders are fulfilled on a first come, first serve basis, so if dealer A is indeed slated to receive additional guitars before dealer B, I can only assume that dealer A placed their order first. Also, PRS does not receive payment from dealers of distributors until a guitar has been delivered to them. If your dealer requires prepayment or a deposit, that reflects their store policy, PRS does not receive any deposit or prepayment for guitars while the guitar is still in the production process.
