    Looks good to me. Needs a little more spraying. Should be next week of week after when I get it (I hope).

    Can't wait to see it ! I am sure it will be glorious. Please post your findings, and enjoy !

    Avalon is not a one-man show. You will be fine.

    It's the kind of stink which will permeate the whole business. As said,it will be a hell of a job to clean up.

    Im sure business will continue as normal for now,  I think this will have more consequences farther down the line.

    Very likely. If so, it will be a great shame.

    It wont stop current sales but may affect future orders for a while,in my opinion.

    Although it is frustrating, the delay is not that great compared to some other manufacturers. Don't worry, I'm sure it will be worth waiting for.

    Whatever is happening in the background, they are an honourable company who will not let you down.

    Just waiting for final set up and the pick up installed. Can't wait. Unfortunately, I can't pay as the web page isn't set up for the new enhanced security for payment. Awaiting Steve's response.

    Just heard, it's been dispatched. Due with me Wednesday. I'll start a new thread when it gets here although I'm likely to be all fingers and thumbs when I first play it.

    Go on Mick, get that bit videoed. You will be an internet sensation  :) Actually only partly joking. My last  couple of high end guitars were delivered by courier ( a first for me ) . I got my wife to video the process just in case of carrier issues. It turns out that it's quite a nice thing to have, especially when first getting the case open and that first encounter.
