Hi Adam,
With all the current fires that we've got out here on the east-coast, we've got plenty of ash at the moment ... I'm hoping you do too (but of a completely different type!)
How goes it with quarantine?
(nag, nag, nag - we're like a bunch of old women, aren't we? ... or maybe that should be like big kids - "are we there yet?", "are we there yet?", "are we there yet?"
Wait a minute ... that sounds like Rock and/or Roll!
SG-1 ... "Little Miss" finished in Flamenco Cherry Wudtone
TL-1A ... "Slugger" finished in Antique White Nitro
EX-1 ... "Metal God" finished in nickel-plate (work in progress)
ST-1A ... "Scrapper" stained and finished in linseed oil ... and with the "secret weapon"
GR-1SF ... "Rocker-billy" (just arrived, work in progress)
Ok, so after a two week shit fight with AQIS it looks like we are finally getting our goods late this afternoon. Bones and I will spend Saturday packing up the backorders. So you should all have your ash kits, ES basses and other cool stuff mid to late next week. Sorry for the delay everyone but it has been a really testing time. We got there in the end though.
Cheers,
Adam

thats great news Adam, pity its been such a hard slog. You even broke one of your forum rules so AQIS have really tested your patience !
Before you pack an ash kit can you please take some photos and post them on the PBG site ? love to see if the grain is as good as the IB'5s ! If you do have time to do this (no hurry) can you please post a note on this thread as I try not to look at the kits as I may get sucked in ! haha

Adam, your perseverance and patience with us ("the impatient") is a wonder to behold ... it's said that retail would be a really great business if you didn't have to deal with public!
... and I guess importing would be even better if only you didn't have to deal with AQIS 8O (hmmm, doesn't AQIS stand for "Another Querulously Incompetent Service"? ... it should!
I'm just putting through my order now for one of those Ash Explorers - before they all go! 8-)

Thanks for hanging in there Adam and not throwing in the towel. If the guitars are as good as the IB15's it will have been worth it.
Thanks again.
