Ilfers,
Has anyone dealt with these jokers before? I have had a board on order for 7 MONTHS and keep getting jerked around. Sometime in May they told me it was done and to send the other 1/2 of the invoice. Like a dummy I did and haven't gotten any straight answers since. Every week it's "it's all finished, just drying, finishing touches, etc." I've read the stories about how they were backlogged, but when I put the order in I dealt with Daniel and he was very responsive and pumped about the project, said he was adding staff and should be smooth sailing, etc. Here's the truth that we all know. If it's not done and it's gonna be another couple of weeks, or you don't even know when it'll be done, just tell me that. The truth will set you free, don't straight up lie about it. Makes it million times worse. Amirite?

I've put in a Paypal dispute and asked for a refund today, but note sure if that amounts to anything or not. Anyway, should I be really scared that I will never see my money or my board??

>Salvage Custom, jerks or scammers??

Yes.

Do your research before ordering custom and pricey shit like that.

Yep! They just responded that the humidity in socal is apparently causing problems with the wrappings drying correctly and they are on like the 4th attempt to get this right. That may in fact be the case, but if so, give me a heads up. Also, that shouldn't be a 7 month process either... Will keep you guys posted. Hoping it works out, because that shit is gonna be amazing if i ever get it.

Wait for the dying family member or some church thing in a few months.

There was another dude on the forum who ordered a board from them and experienced something similar. He finally got the board but it took something like 9 months. That was a few years back though

I know that they recently launched a new line of boards that aren't as pricey and marketed as being a cheaper alternative which I am sure got them even more traffic/sales to have to do on top of their custom shop.

So....why is this a thing? The aesthetics, right? Because a wood "case" for a wood board is going to be heavy, epecially loaded with pedals. Here's what you do. Get a roll of contact paper and doctor up practically anything else. cheap, effective, replaceeable. Oh and quick.

I thought that Southern California wasn't humid, and that on top of that they're in the midst of a drought. But what do I know.

techically it could be so dry that the wraps aren't drying correctly, like they're cracking or splitting in some spots before it is set. But you'd think any place doing serious woodwork/carpentry stuff as a business would use humidity control as a preventative cost-control measure. But as you said- "what do I know"

I like how in their faq the question "what is your cheapest board?" Leads to pedal train. What douches. How about linkin to your cheapest board?

It is 81 degrees here right now. It has been a little humid but not Florida or Arkansas humid. Maybe a little more than normal. We got a day of rain on Sunday . I sealed some wood and it dried fine.

Sorry, man.

We are in a drought, it is a bit humid, and we will have wildfires/mudslides this year. Better than tornados or hurricanes I guess...

Like some mysterious Star Trek "humidifer"!?! or weirder yet a "de-humidifer!?!"
