PSA - Emerald Summer Sale
Just got this from Emerald - 15% off a bunch of stock models until July 24th. Some very nice deals here, across the whole range.

It's hard for me to believe but I looked at the available Emeralds earlier and nothing jumped out at me. I really think I spoiled myself with the X30 I received last month, and believe that any future Emerald I bought would also have to be a special order with a satin finish and no electronics - it just seems right...

The Baritone caught my eye, even though I'm not a huge fan of green.
Seems pricier than ordering one, so I'm unclear about how this constitutes a "sale"

The sale price of $2210 shows the 15% summer sale discount of $390. Sure, you could order a new one with no pickup and just a gig bag, but that would still be $2275. Seems like a deal to me - am I missing something?

I have been emailing back and forth with them about ordering a X20 Nylon version, but was wondering about body depth (and shape) and fanned frets. So, I wake up this morning to see that the X20-7's are on sale. I took what would've been my deposit on the Nylon version and sprung for it. I now will be able to (kind of) assess both the body shape and fan frets, and get to play with an extra string for fun. I know it isn't a nylon guitar, and will be quite different in that respect, but the general feel will be close, and I'll know what I like. It probably won't be a year before I can order the Nylon, but that will give me some time to figure out if I want to modify the body and if I go for fanned frets or not.

Yes, it’s helpful to know that the “from” price on the front page is the minimum you could pay - typically by specifying no pickup and opting for a gigbag instead of a hard case.

Plus picking up in person instead of shipping.

I ordered an X20 with Afzelia wood , but was torn between the quilted maple top model and the afzelia top. I think the quilted maple had more bling, but the longer I looked at them back and forth , I just thought this one was a little bit more to my liking. Anyway , they’ve acknowledged the order n might be a couple of weeks getting here, I’m guessing about that though.

UPS shipping has seemed to work very well for shipping from Ireland to the US...
