just to be sure, it's gonna be designed to fit in this?
Baritone Case

They're being designed to fit in Rondo's baritone hardshell case.

Reading his hard.

 

[darren]

Darren... maybe we should have you edit the initial post to include a FAQ. This is getting kind of ridiculous.

That's a really good idea.

from Kurt

We have no case for it currently - cases are being built at another factory - should be in this fall

Darren did Kurt say it would fit in the Baritone case?

 

[darren]

Back in April, i got the following in an email from Kurt:

Target is to have it fit our Baritone 28" scale case.
If not, we will have cases made for it. But as Cases generally come from China - and the basses from Korea - timing will be off for sure.

So if he's telling you cases aren't available, i'm guessing that the goal of having it fit in their baritone case was not achievable and they're making a custom case for it.

 

[s_the_fallen]

Yeah, that sucks. Hate not to have a case for it when it arrives.

 

[darren]

See if you can find a short-scale bass case for it.

Even my Strat VII doesn't fit in a regular hardshell guitar case... i use a bass gig bag for it.

I use an Agile Baritone case for my Strat VII. Works just dandy.

When the next batch of 8s comes in, will it be posted in this thread? I missed the last one and I want to be sure I order one next time around. Thanks.

 

[TomAwesome]

I'm sure all updates will be promptly posted here. Darren has been pretty good about that. I think there's going to be a little while between the shipping of the first batch and the production of the second batch, though. IIRC, most of the reason for the limited quantities in the first place is that Kurt wanted to get some feedback from the first batch before making more of them.

Patience, friend.

 

[theshred201]

I assume also that if the reviews/response is good, the 2nd batch will be a bit larger (hopefully)?

 

[TomAwesome]

It stands to reason that that would be the case.

 

[darren]

There are a lot of assumptions right there.

 

[Cameron]

Thanks. My friend emailed kurt and he said the next batch is coming in september and will ship in december. I'll have it just in time for christmas.

 

[Kronpox]

Has anyone gotten any updates on the first batch beyond "sometime in august"?

 

[TimothyLeary]

Has anyone gotten any updates on the first batch beyond "sometime in august"?

I'd love to hear something about it!

 

[Ishan]

got this about the pro model :

Should get the first ones in just before the end of the month

Kurt

 

[gatesofcarnage]

I emailed Kurt and he said they will be avalable for order in september or october!.....Does anyone know how many will be in the first batch.

 

[darren]

Kurt would be the one to ask.

My guess is that he's having them built in batches of 10 or 12. According to the poll we did after the ordering for the first run took place, it looks like there are about that many of the Standard and Pro models in the first run.

I can't lie to you guys... i've been thinking of little else for the last couple of weeks. I can't wait to mess around with tones, riffs and tunings on one of these beasts!

 

[st2012]

I'm desperately waiting on the picstories for these guitars.

i can definetly agree with that i have been desperatly waiting for an agile 8 since i found em unfortunatley that was like two weeks after the first run of intrepids were sold. i am very exicted to mess with tunings and riffs with this. Hopefully i dont turn into a crappy Meshuggah ripoff!
