So,
After a long 7 months wait I finally got my Intrepid Pro which is not custom by that much as the factory fucked up and I ended up with a 28.75" scale. I payed the same price a the standard Intrepid Pro as a result.
Still, I love the guitar so I decided to keep it :D they even did another fuck up I love, they forgot the headstock veneer which is just how I wanted it in the first place. I removed the truss rod cover as it is fugly :lol:
I got it tuned to F with no problem, the EMG is not too bad but I already got a replacement on the way, expect another pic story for that :D
now here are the pics:

Very nice! Looks like they still haven't figured out how to set the intonation without scratching the shit out of the bridge's base plate.

Great guitar, I've got a GAS for one of Agile 8's, though I'd prefer it with 2 pickups - I like to use the neck one for cleans and solos :D

Looks sweet man. You also have a very sick rig. It must sound killer!

@Darren> very nice indeed, mine is perfect besides the obvious fuckup haha, I REALLY love the headstock without veneer. scratched base plate yep, but it doesn't show that much without a flash.

@cddragon> Clean are very good on the bridge on this thing, I'm pretty sure it's going to be godly with the coiltapeable pickup dpm (Oni) made from me.

Pretty nice! I think I like how it looks without the headstock veneer. Except...

Yeah. :( It's just a cosmetic thing, but there's really no reason they shouldn't be able to set guitars up without doing that. Little touches like that can go a long way in deciding how a person views the quality and craftsmanship of an instrument.

Very nice, Yoann. Shall be br00tal :hbang:

Why does the baseplate get scratched? I thought that the intonation was set via the rear mounted screws?

It was supposed to be 30" scale, I'm a bit bummed by this but whatever, it holds F fine. My only problem is I was planing to tune to E with this string set and now it's a bit too loose. Gotta have to up the gauges a bit :(
