Nice playing, good work!

<r>Great, yes being abroad you may have to wait slightly longer for shipping. You probably spoke to the US manager DJ - I am based in the UK. Enjoy your new guitar! <img title="{#Darling}" src="./images/smilies/ex/78.gif" alt="{...

<r>What guitar did you order and from what dealer? 4-6 months is a standard quote (can be slightly longer/shorter depending on other factors), factor in NAMM...

For anyone needing the info the Allan Key at the back is used to tighten and adjust the Flexretainer and is 1.5mm.

<r>Hello - Patrice Vigier believes that the Blaze 7 set are indeed the best sonic p/ups for the Vigier 7's…as you know p/up choice can be subjective and if you find they are not for your personal taste you can always swa...

Ah right - so it was HSH originally and someone changed it up? Thanks!

Exactly!

Ben

<r>Most music stores should carry tremolo springs. Also adjusting how far screwed-in the claw is will help with more tension - I only use 3 springs on 7-string guitars * with 9-46/60, but my claw is screwed almost all the way in....

Ben

<r>This is an Excalibur Special * with a HSS pickguard (not something currently available on this guitar)…so you have a nice and unique guitar there. <img title="{#Darling}" src="./images/smilies/ex/78.gif" alt="{#Darlin...

Hi Matt, have emailed you regarding placing a new order.

Ben

<r>Average wait time is around 6 months, but can be between 4-8…also such things as when the build is in progress can take effect, i.e. Christmas, the NAMM Show/MusikMesse and summer vacation (when the factory is closed) etc....

Excalibur Special or Excalibur Indus, both would work...I prefer the PAFF Classics in the Indus model.

Will do. Thanks again for taking the time to answer. The Expert is some guitar, by the way.

No problem...and yes, I agree - very versatile and cuts through the mix!!

Ben

You'd need to replace it like for like, the tremolo on a new Vigier bridge is different size.

Ebay might be a cheaper option, just make sure to get the correct fit.

Ben

<r>We do not have trem arms that will fit this tremolo system anymore - you would have to go to a Schallar dealer direct (<a target="_blank" href="https://www.schaller-electronic.com/hp322968/Tremolo-Arm-for-Tremolo-2000-13110200.ht...

Ben

<r>In short no it will not fit. Your best bet is to find a custom pickguard supplier and have them make you a new pickguard (you can use your existing pickguard as the template). For wiring and switch, this is totally up to you and d...

Ben

<r>I am not sure that patrice has ever quantified the exact amount of sustain they add, just to know that they do. For the secondary benefit of ease of use - I agree there, having had to change strings on guitars with many other types of tuners in the past, the oversized locking tuners on ...

Ben

<r>This is long known fact about mass to a headstock, some players use a brass weight 'Fat Finger', but is ugly and not always practical. You're correct that Vigier guitars have sustain 'in spades', the mass added to the headstock is part of that sustain that a Vigier exc...

Ben

<r>The answer is the M.I. just doesn't know all the implications right now (note the Reverend page has since been removed), or how each countries authorities will implement this, if there will be amendments, exceptions etc. We ...

Nice collection!! Happy New Year!!
