Default Emerald Shipping Video 11/20/20

Another shipping video, but now in a better looking and sounding room (in my opinion). The satin 12 string X20 at 2:25 is sooo cool. Emerald should start making at least some of these stock guitars in satin. I don't think they will have issues selling them.....but what do i know?

Holy Thanksgiving surprise, Batman. That's my 12-string. I wasn't expecting it until sometime in December....

Thanks. I really hadn't been thinking about it so the next week (or so) will be the hard part. Can't wait to get my hands on "Stealthy."

I realized that after my X20-12 "Stealthy" arrives, I will probably own the world's largest collection of Emerald guitars with satin finish....

So you’ve thrown down the gauntlet to Kramster and EvanB, practically daring them to overtake you LOL.

So which one is your satin doll?

No gauntlet, just thought it was amusing that owning two of something would constitute some kind of uniqueness. I was actually thinking of opening a museum and charging admission or minimally getting into the Guinness Book of Records...

While I cannot compete with either Kramster's stock or Evan's lifetime total, there are currently six Emerald guitars in my house -- two woody X7-V2's, an X30, an X20, a new X20 custom, and an X20-12 custom twelve string. So there......

RP will have the corner on satin finish, however, as all of mine are glossy and were ordered or bought before satin was an option.

I forget how gorgeous that X30 is RP. I showed my wife and told her it was carbon fiber. She said "really"? Emerald is achieving a great look with these.

I know it's not everybody's mug of Guinness, but I love the satin finish...
