Default Official, if not precise...

I enquired last night to see if I could get any sense of when my X20 might be with me (ordered June 22nd).

I came down this morning to an email from Kevin, saying "Good news about the guitar there is work scheduled for september and early october. So were looking roughly at about mid October "

So, if that holds, it will be bang in the middle of the 3-4 month quoted lead time.

Now it's beginning to feel a bit more real

Not sure I'd go quite that far. My birthday is in late November, and, as a child, the stretch between birthday and Christmas seemed interminable.

But - four weeks or so out from here, seems manageable. No, really, it does.

Awesome, it is beginning to get real for you. There is definitely light at the end of your tunnel. A few more weeks is nothing after putting in three months. Though I would wager they get more difficult the closer you get

And because I'm the selfish type, I'm already calculating to see when that would put my July 19th order in my hands. Hee hee...
