Well, you have certainly piqued my interest. Looking forward to the "unveiling."

Heard back from Sean that they have not as yet received my neck mold in the mail. This is a bummer as it will likely push my build back. Oh well, I guess I'd rather have my custom be as close to the neck shape I want as possible so if it bumps me out a bit I'll take it. Just hope the USPS doesn't drop the ball and it takes a lot longer. The mold material got to me really quick. Would think it would be the same going back!

Shipped on 6/29 so two weeks tomorrow. Not huge but for the little package it is I would have thought it'd be there by now.

Patience is not exactly one of my strong suits!

Yeah, I would think that is plenty of time...is it anything that customs would get a hold of because then all bets are off on time....I would be pretty impatient with that too. I sent a check to Florida from NY and it never showed up and after 2 weeks I had to cancel payment at the expense of 35 dollars and send another one....not too happy with the USPS myself right now.

Should not be any customs issues. In fact, Emerald gave me a label with verbiage on it that they said should make it so it wouldn't get held up in customs.

Oh well, worst case scenario I'll just have them build it with their version of a soft V neck.

I hear you on USPS. Last few guitar transactions I did through them had issues. I would no longer use them unless the person specifically requested it. I used FedEx the last several months. I'm quite happy to be out of that game (buying and selling).
