I made a post On that sydney erg facebook group to try gather of there's much interest, so I think we should look for 10-20? And go to them once we have that many, seems reasonable for them to make the effort to get a good deal going.
I think it would be good if we could try and get an early Pre-order/discount run through these guys, at a 3-4 month wait the import from a us dealer would probably take 3-4 to co-ordinate anyways.
One on eBay as of now and they wont ship internationally. I wonder what the possibility of a bulk import would be, quite a few aussie members on here who i'm sure would throw down some cash for one.
It's a brilliant unit. The magnetic hex pickup by Roland is apparently far inferior to using piezos, which I can imagine given they receive such a clear signal. Even still, the tracking is pretty damn good. The combination of piezos and an Axon would be fantastic! Really enjoying using it to compose and play various parts on synth/orchestral instruments as I'm awful at keyboard haha
Nope! You want it? I don't think anyone else has claimed it. Right now I'm trying to decide on the other woods for the build. I wanted to do an ebony body and a bloodwood neck, but the ebony is just too expensive for a whole body. So I'm thinking bloodwood for the body, and then something else unique for the neck.
Yeah Tom hasn't started it yet. I'm waiting for Eric to finalize the design. I hope to have it soon, though! I also ordered one of the headless run guitars, but had to go custom to get it in 9 strings. I'm not actually getting a headless 8. How about you?
