I think you just answered your own question.
You had 7 (!) of them that all were meh enough to warrant selling to someone else.

I can say as someone who has gone through a crap ton of gear. I went through that with Kiesel. Was excited about the deals and bang for buck and kept ordering thinking eventually one would stick. Never happened

@TheInvisibleHand Some view Indonesian Strandbergs as overpriced for the build quality.
Mine were pristine, but judging from owner testimonials on SSO there seems to be variability in fret job and finish quality as well as complaints about their trem system.
Don’t shoot the messenger...
For me it’s Spartan time between 2-4PM today.

Anyone know if these Legion Laradas come with a case? I saw Ola's review and he said it came with it but the site doesn't mention a case at all.

I feel like I read somewhere that they come with a hard case!

I think the Facebook post announcing the legion models were available said they come with a case.
Did anyone who bought one get a email saying it shipped? I thought they were supposed to ship today but I never got an email.

Awesome, good to hear. Did yours arrive?
I got a shipping notification earlier today, should be here next week. Got the UPS email message a few hours later.

Nope it said by 9pm tonight, but still doesn’t say it’s been picked up by UPS so I’m not holding my breath. We shall see! I do live down the street from the Abasi office so it’s still possible!

BUTTS LOL
Canada customs is holding my guitar while they try to decide if they believe me that it's a replacement and therefore I shouldn't have to pay import duties on it twice, hurrrrrrrrrrr

As if your situation wasn't frustrating enough already lol. Leave it to customs. Hopefully the replacement is worth the wait.

I think they also posted a week or two ago that all guitars would come in a hardcase from then on.

Looks like the guitar’s gonna take a couple more days to get here, UPS basically sent a delivery window notification once the label was created, but the package still hasn’t been picked up and ingested into the UPS system. I hope it gets picked up today or they let me come pick it up at the office, but I doubt they’ll let me do that.

Ended up cancelling my legion run. I am going to wait for a master or J 8.
Anyone know the next run? Have they hinted at it?

What?
Anyhow I've heard that Japanese 8 strings won't be available until next year.

Cancelled my 7 as well. Figured if I am already spending 2k on something like this, may as well save a bit more and buy the real deal with the features that make it worth it.
