:icon_scratch: Well I am at the 4 1/2 week point on my wait. I was wondering if anyone ordered anything around 11-20-08? I ordered my Lefty WGD on that date and still no word from the Terrapin. I sent my salesman a question two weeks ago and he said my body was routed and still a couple weeks from shipping. Do they take a break for the holidays? Cause if they do, I'm not getting my body till after new years. It is a Christmas present for me and I guess I'm getting like a kid and being anxious. But anyway I was just wondering if anybody was having anything custom built from around that timeframe if they got their stuff yet. I cannot imagine Warmoth being all THAT busy with the economy the way it is.
Anyway I guess I am wondering how they are timewise with the custom builds? I realize they are a production shop and they don't do these one at a time, buy wow I could have had this woodwork done in less than a week including glue up time. In my experience with anything custom made (I have a Harley with some custom parts and a quad that is almost all custom parts) the company will say 4-6 weeks lead time and you have your product in 2-3 weeks. I just wander what is taking so long. Maybe I have to wait longer cause it's a lefty and in the guitar world if you need anything left handed, you must wait. In fact I got a fortune cookie that read, "Left hand player wait long time for instrument, learn RIGHT way" Maybe my WGD looks so good that they want to love it long time? :dontknow:
So, yeah ok I need another cup of coffee before I start ranting, but I was wondering if the pre thanksgiving customers are tooling on their instruments or still waiting for the big brown truck to show up and make their day..............? Can any of you Big W employees on the forum find out what is happening for me on this? I'm gonna call today and bug you guys cause if it can be shipped out this week I'll pay for expedited shipping.....
Thanks in advance
