The fluctuating Canadian dollar is what makes it extra fun. Will it cost a further thousand dollars? Will it only cost $800 more? Will it cost $17 in a wild turn of events where Canada discovers it is built on nothing but gold? Who knows.

Just be happy we take your funny money at all anymore!

Yeah, I get that too. My Revolver DX was like $75 USD more expensive between getting on the list and when it was ready to ship about 4 to 6 months later. Worth it though.

More than likely the bolt on will excede your expectations and be worth every loonie. Hope everyone's build goes smooth.

Still struggling with mine though.

Got mine in the mail yesterday!! I was expecting an email with a tracking number but nope.

Neck is gorgeous, a little heavier than my tele neck and feels goddang slick as all get out.

Going to my luthier buddy this weekend to work on body designs... Still a bit off from having a functioning guitar but I have high hopes.

Anyone have some alumitone p90's that I could borrow? ;)

I am, I emailed them last week to see if they were getting close but I haven't heard back.

The whole "patience" thing would be pretty great if they didn't say 6-8 weeks, then take 5 months and refuse to respond to any emails about anything :whateva:

Agreed, they told me they would be done with all of them by mid April.

I received a final invoice for my bass neck last week. Hoping it should be here soon.

I gotta say, IT'S WORTH THE WAIT. I'd be pissed as all fuck if I were STILL waiting but, having mine, it's amazing, totally worth it. If I have the dollars and cents available when he does another run, I'll probably get another guitar neck (or baritone neck... maybe both, I really do want an aluminum-neck tele).

Luthier buddy is working on the body as we speak........

Not pissed with the wait so much as the lack of communication. I get that his money mostly comes from the completes, and they'll take priority, and that he's the reason any aluminium stuff is being made these days etc, etc; but it is just a bit insulting to refuse to even let me know how far down the line it is. He has said a few times he'll be doing another run later this year though, so I look forward to seeing a baritone neck coming in.

I got in touch with Kevin on instagram the other day and he emailed me saying the necks were done but there was an error with Paypal and he'll have his wife email out the final payment and get everything ready for shipping. I haven't heard anything since then but hopefully that means we'll see them soon

Oh cool, hopefully we hear something soon, I emailed again a couple days ago and maybe the lack of response is just them sorting stuff out? Let us know when you get your invoice!

Did you get your neck shipped yet cantremember? Tried your tactic of asking on IG to no avail.
