I thought I'd make a thread celebrating the arrival of my brand new Excalibur Surfreter.

I bought it from a store in Italy called "The Shred Factory" (also a member of this forum), who were incredibly helpful, friendly and fast (they even included a few Italy-themed gifts with the guitar :) ).

After playing it extensively I must say, this guitar is truly special and incredibly well built (when it arrived at my door it was perfectly set up and still in tune!)

So here are some pics:









So my compliments to Vigier for building such a wonderful instrument and also to the Shred Factory for making the purchase a fast and easy process.

If anyone would like to see more pictures, please go to this link:

I will try to upload some sound samples in a while, too.

That is excellent, nice pics. I am glad you enjoy your new Surfreter - does the dog play as well?

Yup, It's very nice.The dog is more into old jazz, so he doesn't use it much...
