Buddy it was a joke!

The price is right so I'm gonna go for it, I can't wait
I've just send an email asking for a quote for customised Intrepid as well. Waiting for reply. Fingers crossed.

I gotta say, I'm disappointed that I have to wait so long for one of these now. Will the next run be done quicker? I'd imagine it would be.
Ah mate, there was all the planning and stuff that had to go into it. Personally i'm really appreciative of Rondo taking the time to listen to customers and all. It's amazing.

Well, you could always go buy one of the other eight strings with a similar quality level and price... oh wait, there are none. Also the runs always take about the same amount of time from order to delivery.

After thinking about it I completely understand why Kurt is doing this the way he is. If there are problems with the initial run, he doesn't want to have to replace 50 guitars. This is the first time the factory has ever done an eight string, so he's being cautious.

I know its probably going to end up better for us because any bugs will be sorted. And I totally appreciate the work and time put into making these. Rondo are doing a great job for us. Its just that realistically it could be another 6 months before I'd be able to play one of these, and I'm seriously gassing for one!

I put a very small additional quantity back on the site. Just FYI. But after these are sold I really want to wait for customer feedback before we build more.

Sorry, haven't been following this so sorry if I'm asking a question that's been asked a million times already. What about the cheaper bolt-on model?
