Optical illusion or should I be worried?

In any case it's impossible for it to be like the flame, after looking at the first pic.

Unless it got banged into something and there's a big chip taken out of it now.

I've seen the "smurfhat" comment in a few posts. Can someone explain to this newb?

Some people think the headstock looks similar to the hats The Smurfs wore. The ESP headstock is a little more like one, IMO.

[SouthPlatteDemon]

Okay. Now that is funny!

I think the ESP one is more like it as well.

I would be worried about shipping it in that case. The "smurf hat" looks like its already jammed up close to the top of the case. I hope the UPS or whoever is real careful. Didnt some of the pointy dweezils arrive broken because of that kind of case?

Didn't the Dweezils have the allen wrench holder on the back of the head? And those were regular pointies too. Hopefully the case is form-fit enough to keep it from shifting, and the 3x3 head won't have any contact with the case.

My Charvel Star doesn't shift in its G&G form-fitting case. The headstock doesn't touch the bottom either... hopefully they've done that with all their cases now.

I know John mentioned earlier that the newer G&G cases for Customs were being form-fitted, instead of just the "when requested". Maybe that's part of the new pricing scheme, I dunno.

Got the word from Scott at VWall - he should have it by next week, and then I'll get it the following week

Now where's Matt with my 7-string?

[RacerX]

You ordered 1 CS from Scott, and the other from Matt?

Yeah, I'm spreading the love around (and the money)

my dweezil's allen wrench holder came uninstalled; I'm guessing that's how they all came.

Saaaaa-weeeet guitar there Newc!
