My vinyl didn't come today I got an e-mail on Saturday saying they'd shipped it as well.

This is the first time I've ordered from Recordstore, it would be typical for it to go bloody wrong.

I just looked on the website and it says 1-4 working days from shipping date. I'm comforted, but like the impatient child I am, I want it now

It says on Yuri's (or whatever his name is) site that you can buy Springtime in red or blank.

WHERE AND HOW MUCH.

Actually, I'd kinda like to play it first. Just to see what it sounds like/how weird/different it is to play. And I'm quite liking his other one, the Moonlander.

It's a normal guitar and then has 12 drone strings which create natural reverb or something.

Either way, they're probably more than I can afford.

That's not too bad (around £675) for a guitar like that.

Indeed, according to the article, they paid 850€ for the guitar. However that's not the be the "normal price" (if more are made)! See quick translation below:

Quote:

Landman is proud on his 'first sell'. The previous mentioned prestige projects [Moodswiger for Liars and the Moondlander for Sonic Youth] were gifts to those bands. For the Springtime [Laura-Mary's one] 850€ is paid. "Okay, that is obvious still next to nothing, but we both profit from each other" The guitarbuilder worked a couple of weeks on the guitar and already has seven similar orders. "I profit from the attention of such projects. Of course I can ask more money, but you will have to be thankfull as well. I want to build a confidenceband, which in the end is more valuable." [dJ: I think that does not spefic means money-wise]

Oh and is anyone's vinyl numbered?

My vinyl still hasn't come! If it doesn't come tomorrow I don't know what I'm going to do as I'm off to T in the Park for the weekend

Ditto.

Mine isn't. I didn't order it from the recordstore one, because I can get discount from hmv and it's free delivery. Money's tight atm so a few quid saved helps alot :p

I ordered from Recordstore (not from the uk and no cc) and mine isn't numbered either, so I guess none is...
