i need to stop email notifications everytime there is a post in this thread. my inbox is clogged. how to do that for only one thread?
Can we just settle on Puma being a troll?
First stating the guitar is flawed, then it's mint. Saying all Rusti guitars are a flawed complaining about him being incompetent and then silently ordering another build via a friend?
I'm a real nitpicker myself, but sorry that's really just

Let's just put this mint thing to bed once and for all.
This is exactly how it arrived, and I can assure you, it's mint.
He said he's working on a new flavor called the "Dirty Puma". It will be a peanut butter base loaded with horseshit.

No no, you don't get it. Rusti made the guitar. Puma found flaws. Puma's tech even fixed some flaws. But overall the guitar is mint because it was how Rusti made it. Minus the tech work, but let's be honest, it only improved things, so in reality it's actually better than mint.
Oh come on, you don't make assumptions based on just one guitar. Rusti will make a Puma #2, Puma #3, Puma #4, ... I think at around Puma #30, Puma will finally be satisified that Rusti is so incompetent, it's just not worth to order a custom built guitar from him.

That's the définition of "Gets better with age". Give it a year and the guitar will start producing green free energy.

I actually agree with this definition.
What I don't agree with is you saying the guitar was mint even after you altered and/or repaired it on your own accord, which was part of the issue some took in wondering if the guitar was still applicable to warranty.

Jesus Christ dude, can you just quit lying?
Page 3 if anyone's curious where this was pulled from, being offered and told multiple times to ship it back to have ALL issues corrected.
Forums are actually the perfect format for misinformation, you can just straight up change your story pages later thinking that no one will want to take the effort to fact check the bullshit.

This was after legal pressure. Check the dates...
Furthermore: the flaws on that guitar with regards to trem were so integral I had high doubts that Rusti would ever fix them when saying "it only needs a good setup". Back at that time it was also not clear what caused the sound issues, since I actually had a tech check it. He missed the pot issues acc to Rusti.
But then again: Rusti has never proven that it was indeed only the pot and all was good then woth regards to sound... there is also no evidence that he rerouted the trem cavity in a way which makes it fully functional. He was the one who sold it in whatever condition. I never saw that guitar again (and would not even want to).

On topic with the thread, you should've just sent it back and told him to fix it as soon as you received it. If I have an issue with anything new, I don't tamper with it. Take it right back to the source.
Only about a third through this treat of a thread, will be back with more popcorn.

And this is the most controversial comment of the whole thing, how DARE you!!
Holy shit. I could not resist, so I spent a good few hours reading through this whole farce.
Couple of things;
-I've owned 3 Skervesens. 2 of them great, 1 of them not-so-great. The latter one was one of their first ones. I wouldn't hesitate to order one now.
-Puma seems like an unemployed lawyer. He needs to have his debate/litigation fix somehow. Wasting hours and hours on a forum, complaining without no apparent logic, eating your own words and proving to the world that you're just an opportunistic charlatan. In regards to the Reverb thing, it's unbelievable how low you're willing to go - as long as it's in your monetary interests, it's okay to lie and not tell about issues with the guitar.
-I'm just gonna play guitar now, all right? Please, can we just all play some guitar... put a click track on and practice

Not my build. Please stfuTell that the builder not even able to space string slots correctly for a guitar nut.
In case the above build is indeed the XEN then I think this thread was badly needed. All the video tells is that his guitars are seemingly OK and work. And not that this thing had very messy fretwork and messy electronics... I believe I would not have chosen Rusti Guitars if had been given this info, so thanks to the owner for finally disclosing this in public.
