    Thanks for the update. Have all 375 of the original batch shipped? I have on ordered from Canada’s largest dealer and they said they ordered as soon as they were able, but said it’ll be a month or so to get my guitar. I’m just trying to figure out my odds of getting a case with my order.

    That answers a lot of questions. I imagine it's a bit frustrating if you're in the back of the list and now waiting months but that beats getting a guitar full of issues today.

    Yes...imagine how many more they would have sold already if the serious problems with this guitar weren't brought to light by hundreds of internet "experts". ;)

    I think, with the taller frets, you’d never notice the radius.

    Hi Shawn,

    Sorry if this is a silly question but my dealer told me they had ordered a few Silver Skies before they were released to the public. I had put a deposit down for one of those guitars. Now the question is, since these orders were placed ahead of time, will those still be shipping out soon or could those still be backordered?

    Thanks, man. Impatient guitarist dealing with non-stop GAS over here hahaha

    I thought the Silver Sky had the traditional strat 5-way switch. This one seems to have some sort of weird binary switch and the middle pickup is just for show...
