Default Two months in...

... and I decided to add to the excitement by requesting a colour change for my upcoming X20.

Amber, be gone. Red, you are my new love.

Hopefully, this doesn't send me to the back of the line.

I like seeing all the posts from the folks ahead of me in line, it makes my waiting easier, as I am only a month in. I have to admit, I too have been contemplating a change to my order as well, I am curious to see if you do get delayed. I bet you don’t, it seems like just a color swap shouldn’t delay anything.

According to Kevin at Emerald, I caught it just in time

Black was good enough for the Model T, and it's good enough for my Rainsongs....

He did not, however, offer a definition of 'time'. I could make a wildly optimistic assumption, but I will try to restrain myself, and reassure my 55-year-old Martin that it will always have a place in my collection. I haven't told the others yet.
