I couldn't resist the discount.

Sometime toward the end of June, #3 Emerald should arrive

Congrats. The Amicus is a cool, fun instrument....

I've been wanting one for quite a while. I think it's a very fitting use for my inheritance from my late Mum's estate.

Oh, I will. Two months is going to seem quick compared with the other two.

I also like the new built-in stand. Very handy.

Every time you play, you will think of Mom and remember. A nice tribute. The Amacus is a joyous sounding instrument. Congratulations on getting back into the queue.

Cool! I like how these sound and that you don’t have to learn a new instrument to play one

Agreed, and agreed

I just sold an electric Mandola that I’d had for years. Never got on with its super-skinny neck and upside-down tuning. The Amicus already has me translating chords in my head. I’m really looking forward to it.

Congrats, eats. I agree with the Captain... very nice tribute! I know you're looking forward to its arrival.

Good for you! Like you, I'm struggling to resist the discount.

And they quoted me 2 months also - that big expansion they've been talking about must be kicking in.

In my case it was more than enough to cover the upgraded shipping.

I think so too - it’s interesting to watch the ebb and flow of the in-stock instruments as well. There seems to be more movement there, which also suggests a capacity increase.

Do you guys mind me asking what discount you’re referring to? I’m not seeing anything about a sale on the website or Facebook.

Congratulations on the order by the way. Looks super cool!

I never actually got the email, so I verified directly with Emerald to make sure they hadn't forgotten about me as a repeat customer.

Thanks for the info guys. I’d be looking at my first Emerald so the discount doesn’t apply to me. Excited to see your NGD posts soon!

In the end I really don't think that matters. Work up a guitar order and enter the code, and you might be surprised if the 10% discount makes a difference...
