This was posted on the lgm website yesterday.

Hello to all of our customers.
The time has come at LGM Guitars and Graphix where we sadly are backlogged
so far with work that we regretfully will not be taking orders on guitars
until the current backlog of work is completed and shipped. We are still
doing custom paint, if you have an inquiry for airbrush work please let us
know. Due to the move, LGM Graphix custom paint taking off MUCH bigger
than expected, and some poor use of time management, we have fallen very
far behind on our guitar orders. Rather than continue to take orders and
miss deadlines, it is in the best interest of LGM Guitars and our
customers to stop taking orders for guitars. This is not a permanent
issue. We have no plans to stop building the Leviathan line, and are
currently looking into other alternatives to our current building process
in order to streamline production. Please check back to the website for
updates on Leviathan availability often.
We apologize to those of you who are still waiting on instruments, and
apologize to those of you who want to place orders right now. Please bear
with us until we get through this batch of guitars.
Thank you

Sincerely
Jeremy Ferguson
LGM Guitars and Graphix

Damn am I ever glad I got my order in a couple weeks ago

If I would have had to wait til this batch was finished, I wouldn't have been able to order one.

Hmm that's understandable.

lol good thing i still consider myself too young (not to mention too poor) for a custom axe like leviiathan

7 Dying Trees · 03-22-2006, 08:22 PM

good to know that he's doing well, but it is always the way with custom orders that people expect quality, and that does take time! Good to see he isn't prepared to cut corners either!

Drew · 03-22-2006, 08:36 PM

Yeah, but he should have done this months (possibly years) ago. How long have some of the first orders been waiting?

Shawn · 03-22-2006, 11:29 PM

Wow, he must be extremely busy, that's good, he does nice work.

David · 03-22-2006, 11:33 PM

sounds like a management member fucked up somewhere in there, and let people slack. I hope everything works out for them.

Well, there is that, but then again, i waited 8 months for my custom, and that was from a professional company with many employees...

But, a custom really is always worth the wait

Clearly you don't know how LGM is run.

IIRC, it's only Jeremy working there isn't it? Atleast on the guitars?

Leon · 03-23-2006, 02:04 AM

he's definitely the only one doing the luthery (sp?). he may have help with other things, i'd imagine. though, a guy who can stuff a couple boxes of pencils in his mouth can definitely handle a big work load lol

The door swings both ways, we could reverse the particle flow through the gate. We'll cross the streams.
