sorry, i had to enable vacation mode to catch up on orders. Everybody and their mom ordered pickups in April so i got crazy backed up.

Hopefully stimulus money put to good use. USA small business.

If tony1852 talked to the store, he probably got it. My transaction was online. They must not have updated the website. Congrats to you tony1852!

Nice to be an "essential" worker. Very cool that you can keep your biz going during the lockdown.

thanks iLuvTeles! i called the store when the opened on saturday (12pm CST) when they opened. maybe the guy didn't know the transaction already went through on line or maybe it didn't get registered to the site that it was already sold when you put it in your cart on line. it would suck if we both got our CC charged and thought we got a beautiful guitar. looks like a great guitar and from what everyone said on the board, a real keeper.

My real job is actually in healthcare.
I think it was busy cause so many people were/are stuck at home

mickey, do you think the build on the valkyerie iii is lesser than you awesome, pre-melty valkyrie? looks like you at least changed out the bridge pickup. what did you put in it? you don't have the original specs on your valkyrie, do you?

also, has anyone got a hold of one of these:

I never changed anything. I bought it used and a previous owner had put a "Duncan Performer" pickup in it.

mickey, thanks for the video! cool to know that the nut is 1 11/16" instead of 1 5/8!

The neck has a Gibson "feel" to it. In the best possible sense of the term.

Civil unrest has delayed your package in transit. Delivery will be rescheduled. Check back for updates.

The NERVE of these ding-dongs, delaying my Agile!!!
