Yep, apologies for the delay - been having a bit of bother with the printer. Neck rests should be going out towards the middle of next week, pedalboard kits to follow a few days later.

Take your time Lee, dont stress about it if theres tech issues, Im in no rush for mine.

No apologies required, we know that this isn't your job!

Deferred gratification is a great thing.

Sit rep: Almost there, people. I wasn't happy with a few of the neck rests, so I re-did them. Everything's shipping next week.

Brio

Yay!

Awesome. Thanks for the update.

May I purchase a neck rest please? Am I too late? Have I missed the boat and has the horse bolted?

Yup, PM incoming shortly.

Ah nice, I'll have a neck rest please.

Gosh darn it. I'll happily take a pedalboard if I'm not too late!

OK, sorry for the lack of updates - been having an absolute nightmare with shipping. Those of you who're online retailers have my undying respect, this stuff's an absolute trial from start to finish.

The boxes have been stacked up in the lounge for days waiting for Evri to get their shit together. If they're not out the door tomorrow, I'll be driving them to your houses at the weekend, because it's less hassle.

I'll make sure the kettle is on.  I would offer you a go on my guitars but they are lefties.

I'm in Surrey and have just made a fresh batch of Texas style chili and a lethal Mutton Madras. Feel free to pop in.

And, at long last...they're shipped.

One thing to note - I've left the logo plates un-attached on these, given that you guys are paying a bit more than everyone at the show, so I couldn't justify forcing you all to advertise the forum with your boards However, if you want to put them in, just a dab of superglue on the item (not the logo plate), and then push it in. You might need to clamp it to keep it even, because the tolerances turned out very tight.

Also, sorry for the delay, everyone - this was a disastrous first attempt. Now that I know where all the pain points are, I can be a bit more targeted about the whole thing. It's been really rather stressful trying to get everything sorted.

Sorry it's been such a troublesome job.

Looking forward to receiving the neck rest and attaching the logo plate.

It's mostly been self-inflicted due to underestimating the job of packing and shipping.

Still, I know better for next time. I've already got two or three ideas for the next designs in the range, I just need to spend some time thinking about how to design them for mass production - they're probably easy to make one of, not so easy for 20+.
