Default Emerald shipping video 10/9/2020

Today's video has some fantastic custom work going out the door. That X30 at 15:50 is a stunner!

Yes, the 30 is a stunner. And I like the T shirt, too.

I was hoping to see my x-20 but no such luck. Next week (I hope!!). Keep a lookout for a dark pau ferro x-20 with mother of pearl shamrock neck inlays.

Glad to see the shipping videos back on line, and there were some very nice custom guitars going out. The inlay work is amazing. It was interesting to hear about the log jam of X20 production limited by only having one mold, so only one built per day. It figures that I am waiting on a custom X20...... but somehow I'll get by playing my stock X20 almost daily. That helps with patience levels.

Cool shirt to send, Evan!

My X20-7 already sounds indecently full. I think a license might be required for an X30-7.

I’d love to give that one a try

I loved the video and I started following them on Facebook. I didnÂ’t realize they produced so many guitars! My build wont be ready till February.

This is a very impressive collection of unique instruments going out this week. Did I miss the X7s?

Regarding the inlays: I appreciated the explanation on how they are doing those, very different from dropping in some Mother of Pearl.
