thanks :) that's a pretty good deal. As i said, the OGG had one for £800 (IIRC) a couple of years back, but it wasn't as nice as yours.

I actually went looking and I think it's still on the chappell's site, unless they had more than one of them?

yeah i noticed it didn't come off the site. Bit weird. Maybe they do have more.
I did find another... same model and finish exactly, but it was over £2K and i had no way of testing it out beforehand without a massive train ride. Finding that one in london was a bit freaky.

I'm defo happy with it. The trem works amazingly and it feels more like a floyd under my hand than my PRS trem, although both are super stable. You can just get away with doing more floyd style tricks on this. I also like the idea of the neck having a carbon strip instead of a truss rod. Hopefully it'll only ever need minor maintenance.

^ thanks :) I don't think i ever got to mess with the trem much as most shops take the bars off the guitars, but that'd be awesome if it reacts more like a floyd. But i did like the guitars a lot. I'll have a think about it for a day or two, anyway. I mean odds are they're out of them anyway and they just haven't updated their site, so I'll not get too excited.

You got a killer deal there :D :drink:
