    Adam,

    Ash bodies? ... looks like there's some keen competition for them!

    Seeing as most of the others here seem to be Fender-ites, then I guess that means there might be a chance that there'll be an Ash EX-1 that wont otherwise be "purloined" ... in which case, consider at least one of them "taken" by me!

    Do you want me to order it now? ... or wait until they've arrived ... any idea on prices for the Ash EX-1


    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)

    Hey folks,

    As I said, looks like the Ash body kits are due early-mid October. We've got ST, TL and EX style kits in Ash in pretty good quantities. As for prices, probably about $30 on top of the basswood kit price. I will make up some product codes on the site for these new kits and announce on here when they're available to pre-order. Please remember, there is no guarantee that these kits are going to look as sensational as the IB-5, which inspired this investment. You might want to consider this before diving in and reserving one.
    Cheers,

    Adam

    UPDATE: My guess two weeks ago was pretty accurate, the ship is due to dock tomorrow. So, barring any Port strikes and other such nonsense, we should have the new Ash kits available to ship to you early to mid next week.

    I will be setting up new product codes for these Ash kits tonight.

    Cheers,

    Adam

    Hi Adam ... I see you've got the product codes up already for the Ash-body Strat's and Tele's ... but didn't see one for the Explorer? Are the Ash-body Ex-1s still coming out with this shipment?


    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

    Ordered!!! Don't forget me Gav, I can also vouch for the Basses.

    This one will be a 21st pressie for someone, so I have been hanging out for something special. Woohoo!!!

    Adam will all these ash kits come with a rosewood fingerboard ?

    I think I better order one before they sell out before they hit our shores !

    Rob and Gav, did you both order ST-1 kits ?

    Yes us 3 are proud IB-5 builders, one of my favourite builds to make noise on !
