Default X7 Chimera?

Has Emerald ever built one of these? Seems like it'd be the ultimate travel guitar—sneaking two for the price of one by the airlines...

I could have sworn I'd seen an Amicus/X7 combo at some point, but I can't find it on their website anywhere.

This must be some kind of cosmic question. Just the other day Joe, a villager who has an Emerald bass, was talking about how cool it would be to have an Amicus/7. Like Eatswodo, I seem to think I've seen one before, but can't nail down where. This is a question for

SUPER K

Or an inquiry to Emerald, which ever comes first.

We haven't completed a Chimaera with an X7 neck & Amicus neck.

I think I have attached photos of the two chimaera's we have completed (I'm still getting used to the whole forum thing )

They are an X20-12 & Amicus and Bouzouki & Amicus.

REALLY interesting! I'm beginning to wonder: Just how many unique customs are there, that Emerald has made, that we've never seen before?!

Thanks, Chloe - I knew I’d seen at least one with an Amicus neck!
