I've had my NL 00 (13 fret black walnut/lutz 25"scale) for about 7 months now and it's pretty amazing. It's powerful and articulate with wonderful balance leaning slightly towards mids and highs, but when I want I can make the bass boom, in fact it growls. 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.
