Default It's he-ee-rr-ee!!! Emerald Isle Treat!!!

Well, it actually showed up with the mailman on Friday late morning. Busy weekend but got some good playing time in already!

What a beautiful guitar..........elegant design and lines on this thing. Sounds fantastic unplugged or plugged.

Let me say that the customer service from Sean and the team there at Emerald is unbelieveable. Very impressed and amazing experience all the way around already. Can't wait to get some more playing time in over the long Thanksgiving holiday weekend. My wife left to visit her out of town family, so I have nothing but time on my hands..........and now a new Emerald X20 Artisan IN MY HANDS!!

Default Emerald X20 video

I took the guitar out on Friday night to hear a band I know, and got the guitar player (Zack King of The Zack King Band) to give it a whirl on a few songs. Here's a video I shot with my phone of one of the tunes.

It was fun hearing a professional play my new guitar. He was very impressed with it to say the least!!

I'll try to get some video of me playing it sometime this week and put it up.

Jim

Congrats on a beautiful guitar. I have the same one.

One thing I learned...It sounds better if you remove the pick from the strings.

I think Amber is the most attractive of all the Emerald (guitar) colors.
Your Emerald X20 Artisan Amber looks beautiful.
