I take it to a shop that's out of town (because my local store sucks fat cock), and unbeknownst to me, 2 days after I dropped it off they relocated their store.
No big deal, though. Saturday will be jam day.
Any musicians want to collab?

yikes, make sure they don't relocate your guitars too 
I take all my guitars to one guy who I know is never going anywhere, and I get the work done then and there, I don't leave any instruments there overnight or anything like that.

Out in the middle of nowhere in Oklahoma, I have to take what I can get. My local place is absolutely terrible. I took them 3 months to just install pickups (incorrectly), and then they lost my original pickups, charged me out the ass, and basically shrugged their shoulders and said I didn't have to give them my business if I didn't like it.
So, now I drive 60+ miles to another store (who corrected their screw up for free). I was vaguely aware of them wanting to relocate, so I'm not worried about it. I know the tech really well, and called him this afternoon about the status and he said that he'll call me Friday (tomorrow) if he gets them finished.
I'm really getting impatient about a Caparison that I ordered at the end of May. Guy told me it would be 2-3 months, but we're slowly coming up on the 3rd month and I've heard nothing. The guy sometimes won't even reply to my emails, either

I've wanted to try a Caparison for a while, you'll have to record it when you do get it. How did you go about ordering it anyway?

I ordered it from www.theaxepalace.com. They only had the H-H version in stock, and I wanted the H-S-S version (single coils for funk/jazz), so he had to order it direct from Japan.

Nice! I'd prefer a Wilkinson over a Floyd though, but that's just preference.

I mostly play Carvin these days, and Roland synths (some yamaha stuff too). But yeah it took me a few years of expensive trial and error to finally settle down on Carvin as my guitar of choice. For the most part I prefer string thru also, but I do have a couple trem equipped guitars cuz you never know when you'll need to do some stupid crotch metal dive squeals.

Good call on Carvin. When I get the funds (just blew my wad on the Caparison), I plan on going through them to build a custom strat. I was actually surprised how cheap it is to have them build you a guitar, and it's USA-made ('murrica!).
I have a cheap Yamaha PSR-E323 keyboard that I play around with. I wish I was better with synth stuff. Been looking into some Roland gear, but it really is pointless since I can't play haha.

Didyou buy that Acid software? It should have a built-in metronome. I plan on re-recording that main passage tonight (been real busy with school). I'll have a countdown before the actual chords if that'll help you. Then you can record your part. We should really get a dropbox going for all of this.
