I have a lot of other guitars but nothing with the Halcyon's voice, not even close. I ordered it at the end of Dec. in 2013 and took delivery the beginning of Sept. 2014, so it was about 9 months, which at that time was the estimated build time. To say the least, I couldn't be happier with it. In fact, I ordered another guitar from Ed this last Nov. This time it will be an AJ 25.5" scale, figured Padauk b/s with a torrified lutz top. It should be finished in a few months and you can be sure I'll post a NGD thread when I get it.
Apparently, great minds think alike in that I ordered a Tinker 12 fret Sloped dread with figured/flamed paduak, a AAA Adirondak top and a few other bells and whistles. Build should start in earnest any minute now.
