UPDATE RUN FIVE - GOLIATH:
Final hardware designs locked in. I got the final revisions this weekend. We are now way ahead of schedule (two months!).
Goliath pre-orders will be pushed forwards, although manufacturing is still set for sept/oct at this stage. Maybe this can move forwards too.
Micro FAQ - Let's see who reads it tongue emoticon
When will you start taking deposits? Soonish. We dont have a date.
How much? Due to hardware costs, they will be more than regular GTR's, but only by a small amount. Maybe we will delete the cases? We are estimating $70 USD more than a similar spec HypeGTR.
You should totally get gig bags, instead of cases, to save money!!??!! Yep, except gig bags totally cost more. We are working on stuff.
What finishes?? No idea yet. But, trust me. Im going to blow you away.
How accurate are the mockups? Close. Thanks go to Chris once again for absolutely killing it with the mockups. We've since changed the end of the neck/nostock area.
Will it have a zero fret? No, zero frets are stupid ideas, especially if you ever plan on ever doing vibrato or bends on any fret below the fifth (it will slide and make a twinking sound, and eventually wear and make the issue worse). It will have a regular nut, that can easily be serviced at any tech/store worldwide.
