Crap, now there's nothing stopping me from putting in an orderYeah they are on point with their estimates

They are for sure. Mine took a little over 9 months but that might be due to the custom inlay.Can anyone tell me whether they stick to their estimated build times? The raw is 6-9 months according to the site..
Did you post a pic of your inlay on here? If not, can you post one so we can see it? If so, can you repost one so we can see it?They are for sure. Mine took a little over 9 months but that might be due to the custom inlay.
That's a cool idea, don't forget you can always use a single jack and TRS split cable for this too, like RickenbackerHas anyone had their H/0 wired like the old stereo ES345? One pickup per output jack with two cables inserted and both in mono when only one jack is used?
Just curious for now but I think we all know where that leads.
You get out of here with that nonsense, I'm inventing a flimsy excuse for a new guitar here!That's a cool idea, don't forget you can always use a single jack and TRS split cable for this too, like Rickenbacker![]()
Out of curiosity, what's your order number, if you don't mind telling us?H/07r deposit down, yellow sheet in hand. See you guys in 6-9 months.
Yeah I found this out just after I'd put an order in, doh! Just means I'll have to get another one...or two...So Aristides now offer their aqua color in the raw series... very tempting...
I don't see why not, it's 2689.Out of curiosity, what's your order number, if you don't mind telling us?
I haven't thought about Aristides much in a bit since there's not much in the way of new developments (and I still don't get along with their current neck offerings), but man, being able to get a Raw model for roughly $3k? Surely that's about the best bargain for a high end guitar out there right now.
yeah the few times I've gotten to play them since I sold mine, there just seems to be a slightly missing "mojo" for me, if you let me use a TGP-ism.It's a bargain if you want what's possible within the fairly structured niche these sit in.
I've tried several Aristides now, and unfortunately none of them made me want to buy one. They're fine instruments, but neither the body shapes, neck profiles, or really anything especially spoke to me. That happens and in no way reflects on anyone but myself.
