New for 2022 Phase 1 Ship Date?
New for 2022 Phase 1 Ship Date?
Any one got the scoop on when pre-orders are expected to ship out to dealers?
I'm with you as well. I am going to keep both of my pre-orders since I've seen a couple of dealers in the US post listings on reverb and mention they expect the guitars in 7 to 14 days. I'm hoping Sweetwater and guitar center are in the same boat as these other dealers and will be getting their orders in soon.
Well, I can finally say its NGD. Sweetwater came through after 10 months of waiting. They hit me up yesterday and let me know my M-1001NT was finally in, and did me a rock star solid and overnight shipped me the guitar at no cost. I was beyond pumped! I put in my pre-order for this guitar in early March of 2022 and got it in hands today (10 or so months later). However, I'm still waiting on Guitar Center to get in my MH-1000B that I pre-ordered on Jan 15th, 2022..
But, the good news is, I've got one of the two so far:
Thanks man! I've had the case since like March, just sitting empty, waiting for a guitar...
If I am being honest tho, I'm a little disappointed with my M-1001NT. There's nothing wrong with the guitar other than the weird "misprint" of the neck having a 42mm nut width instead of the advertised 43mm nut width? But I feel a little less stoked on the guitar as it just feels overpriced for what It is. I recently bought an Agile Septor 630 that is made in the same Korean factory that my LTD was made in (World Musical Instrument co.) for literally half the price ($599), and its a much better quality built guitar. The neck on this M-1001nt feels really cheap, and the finish feels almost not there. It just feels like an M-10 instead of a 1k series. I suppose that ESP guitars are now getting to that point that they have become overpriced for the specs these days. Hard pill to swallow when there are other up and coming brands that give those same specs for much less with just as good of quality.
But I digress, I still love the guitar and will keep it for sure lol
I won’t give up now, I think we’re getting close. Chondro Guitars in WI has listed some ‘22’s and expects to have them in a couple of weeks they say.
Also, the Belfield video is encouraging, the serial numbers on the boxes are W22’s…Korean made.
