Not that CL one, the dude never responded to me lol


I was about to order a new NX 6 Standard from GC (have a lil chunk of store credit) but then they were on backorder

So I snagged a used Prog off GC used instead. And still came out cheaper than the standard was going to be

Kinda stoked it’s turned out this way, happy about the swamp ash and the Suhr pickups

That is a killer deal! I’m good with my Essential for now though.

Strandberg are mostly fine and people should not be any more concerned about buying one than any other instrument in its price range. You can just send it back if you’re not happy.

Edit: incoming prog

I‘m going to order a Prog as well.
Oh Yeah!

The HILS HN3 vs. EART GW2 battle has begun. Other than being both headless, they are radically different from each other. More details to come soon.

Really looking forward to your impressions! I've been torn between the two of these guitars and they both seem fantastic on paper.

I hope to post a video review of the EART first and then post a HILS HN3 vs. EART GW2 shootout afterwards. Stay tuned.

Hell yeah!!!


UPS has made a “sortation error” with mine and now I no longer have a delivery ETA. Hope they find it or whatever….

The Eart guitars vary widely in qc particular issues are the frets are not trimmed to the fingerboard edges. All over the place and no , that’s right no fret level beyond trying to press them in level.
Sometimes you get a good one but you also get awful fret outs on lots of them this is what they come to me about.

I’d say I got a good one. I haven’t noticed any fret issues after a few hours of jamming.

Post a picture looking lengthwise down the fret ends.

Yes It’s a Fusion Comunity Drop, a Limited Edition with Suhr SSV+ in the bridge position and a SSV in neck position. The middle pickup is also a Suhr.
The finish is gloss instead of matt and the fretboard is Macassar ebony instead of Richlite.
