BigWheeledWagon Posted January 12, 2008 Share Posted January 12, 2008 Congrats -- it's a good-looking axe. I think you made the right choice. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
a.miller Posted January 14, 2008 Author Share Posted January 14, 2008 Congrats -- it's a good-looking axe. I think you made the right choice.Thanks! The bad news is, despite it being brand spankin' new, it was fretting out on the 12th and 15th frets. I took it to the local luthier and he is backlogged for three weeks So, my new prize is waiting in the shop for a setup. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Your luthier fixed it as soon as you walked out the door and has been playing it ever since. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Dimetapp drinker Posted January 22, 2008 Share Posted January 22, 2008 Your guitar's Japanese cousin is on the way . . . cleared customs in no time, apparently. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Dimetapp drinker Posted January 23, 2008 Share Posted January 23, 2008 It's here! I bought it through Ishibashi in Japan - equivalent of $823 Cdn. Duties and taxes would have been another $100 or so, but Ishibashi said on the import form that it was $25 worth of "printed material." Well, if customs thinks that a guitar shaped box is loaded up with printed material . . . then fine. On the online tracking form, it showed that it spent all of 10 minutes at customs. Ended up paying $11 C.O.D. I also got $120 worth of merchandise delivered today from the MusicToday Wilco store - had to pay $22 C.O.D. for that! Pics to follow. No sound clips - I respect you people too much to inflict that upon the forum. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
