Yeah, I'd be all over it if it had an ebony board. Heck, even any of the other finishes with the maple board. For some reason the natural/maple combo really isn't doing it for me looks-wise. I'd buy it, but I know I'll constantly be thinking about a refin, which isn't really worth the effort on a guitar at this price point, and I'll be kicking myself FOR SURE if the next run has an 830 with better options.

Anybody know when the next run will be? I might have to go ahead and get one of the 828s to tide me...

i REEEEEALLY like the looks of the pro. i was skeptical about the mahogany at first, tone-wise, but since it's maple neck-thru, it should be very balanced. i've heard rumours about it sounding very resonant, which is all that really matters.

i'm getting one! MWAHAHA!

edit: order placed. i will now proceed to cry in a corner while fapping furiously to cheap printouts of the intrepid...

yeah...

Congrats, you WILL NOT be let down. The Intrepids really do have a good feel and sound.

correct. you do not pay for the case or shipping until it is ready to ship.

Really? I had to pay for shipping when I ordered mine. Cause for concern?

I know. I dont understand why some of the finishes dont have a option for rosewood. Some of them look better with rosewood just as some look good with maple.

I thought about this a bit in the last few days, I think I'll wait 'till they do some 30" scale dual standard. I'd really like a Dual Std finished in blood burst and an ebony board :) it would compliment my natural pro perfectly and I could keep it tune to F and have the 30" scale to E :D

Crap...the Ebay transaction I had going for the ESP SC-608 fell through. Now I'm really looking at the Agiles...

I like the looks of the Bloodburst with the Rosewood neck. Is there a big difference in tone and playability from the bolt-on's vs neckthrough's?
