Emerald X20 Eye Candy
 

Well, I've had my new amber X20 Artisan 2 weeks as of today. Needless to say I am very thrilled with the guitar, in both sound and aesthetics! It has exceeded my expectations. I had the standard LR Baggs Element changed over to the Anthem, and I am running it through a Fishman Loudbox Artist acoustic amp. Having SO much fun playing it most every day.

One of the really cool things that Emerald does (in addition to the famous coffee mugs!), is including a flash drive with hi-res photos of your actual guitar that are taken in their photo studio before it leaves the factory. I thought I'd share the photos of my guitar. What a thing of beauty it is to behold....and to HOLD and play!!

Cheers!!

Wow… beautiful!

Very nice! :up:

Smart for Emerald to put the digital images in the case with the guitar - who doesn't want to show the new acquisition, and what better way to do so than with professional quality images!

That is a gorgeous instrument.

That's a beauty. I wish there was some place to try one of these close to where I live. I didn't bond too well with a Rainsong I had, but I could really use a carbon guitar down at our place in Mexico.

That is a super nice looking guitar! Kudos to you and Emerald!

That is gorgeous ! I really love the sinuous organic form and the beautiful finish.

I speak as one who has only in the last couple of days taken any real interest in CF guitars.

I had glanced at these in the past and kinda subconsciously written-off anything with an off-set sound hole as an ugly duckling.

I have suddenly (more or less overnight) become a convert and now eagerly await the arrival of my X-7 that I snapped up outta the Bay the other day. :)

Your Emerald X20 Artisan Amber is an incredibly beautiful guitar.
The Amber weave is stunning.
Folks at Emerald Guitar do such a wonderful job.
I know how great you must feel about your new Emerald X20 guitar.
I've had my X7 Artisan Amber for almost two weeks.
These Emerald guitars are truly something special.

Wowza!! What a gorgeous geetar! 4 more months or so to wait for my Woody X20-12.....I'll be counting the days!

Cheers..

I was wondering what made you choose the anthem instead of the element?

Stripealiscious! (If that's not a word it should be based on this guitar)

Very classy looking guitar, amber and black is their best colour i find

Pickup for X20
 

No other reason except that I thought I might like the combo of an undersaddle and a mic pickup in it. So far so good on the decision!! :up::up::up:

Waiting for mine!
 

Awesome! I am eagerly waiting for my X20 to arrive. Almost the same but with the standard pick up. Getting psyched for some great sounds! I played almost every CF guitar made and did the full tour of Southern California before making my decision to go with the Emerald. Heres hoping! IT is always tough when you can't actually play it before you buy it. Can say that I listened to about every Youtube vid every made before deciding it had the sound I wanted.

Sweet! They are just beginning my Balor ABG build, it'll be amber like yours but with a woody top.

Way cool! However, green is my color.....
