Are they doing it one by one in order or who ordered first and then moving onto the next?

Will be a long drawn out process if doing it that way 

Yep, but it has to be said its a very fair way to do it. 

Definitely a fair way but very drawn out for the people that are in no hurry to select

Ha, brilliant. Always room for another right?

Might I ask where you were able to locate an Axcess for such a great price mate? No worries if you don't want to say

I Got first choice on the dirty lemons and managed to get a lovely finish.  I was after something that resembled Gary Moore's 'Stripe' guitar where the left side has a knot and the rest has a decent stripe finish (funnily enough).  I may piss off the purists but the scratchplate and humbucker covers are now off to complete the look.  Happy to post pics if anyone can help - I normally find the link just appears but no pics.



im still waiting for my turn on the dirty lemons and it kills me, I thought I was higher on the waiting list

Was a private sale so not from a shop or bedroom dealer

Just got home from collecting and wow what an awesome guitar and my best bargain to date. My previous being my Joe Perry blackburst at £600

Jeez, they're both awesome bargains. I guess patience and observation are the key! Thanks

That's awesome, I love that you've made it your own. Congrats on the new guitar, if it's anything like mine you'll be very pleased

Cheers!  I've always liked the uncovered look against the lemon finish so it had to be done haha.

Thank you!  It was 9lb 3oz but actually feels lighter.  I have an 8lb 4oz CS and there's not much in it.

Much appreciated.  Did you go for the dirty lemon too?

Lovely score @8luesman , is it one of the gloss ones?

Yep - shiny hardware is the easy giveaway 

Boromedic

Cool, I never thought of that! Is this the first one in the wild then? You work first 8luesman, pickup covers off straight away!

If it sounds at least half as lovely as mine then it's a keeper!
