Mine too! It's the black X20 at 6:28 going to CA, with a custom 24.875” scale length.

Well, that is big fun, seeing three (maybe more?) inmates here getting new Emeralds! That is a nice variety of guitars in this week's shipping video.

Congrats to you new Emerald owners, especially the owner of that satin X20....

You inspired me RP. The 2 month build time was a very pleasant surprise.

This will be a fun race to see who gets their guitar first. I’m in Houston. I don’t know what Emerald does so far as sending updates or tracking numbers.

My friend received his Emerald in less than a week. He was amazed.

Got my UPS "ship notification" Wednesday, and tracking shows delivery for Monday. It took about a week to get my last guitar from Emerald.

Can you check with Emerald? Tracking showed it shipped 3/12 and delivery would be today, but now it shows it's still in Dublin. That happened the last time, and it arrived a few days later.

Anyone receiving yet? I pinged Kevin yesterday for a tracking number and he said he would get one from shipping department but with St. Patrick’s holiday I have yet to hear anything.

Mine arrived today in CA. Shipped 3/12, so six days. I got a shipping notice email from Emerald, with the UPS tracking number. So far it’s really nice! Changed the strings to EJ16 PBs, and it sounds great, very similar to the new X20 with the stock 25 1/2” I got last year, which is now cased and will be sold at some point. I love the short scale neck. Will do a NGD post with pics in a day or two.
