WoW three days from ordering & it's delivered to my door, Top job Thomann, you just cant beat this kinda service. Well what can I say! It is BEAUTIFUL  the workmanship is first class, there's not a blemish anywhere on it. the cherryburst paintwork on this is really nice. The fretboard was dry but apart from that it's got very nice fret work, it was sent out detuned, I tuned it up & the tuners hold tune no problem, nice smooth action, in fact the intonation is just a smidgen out on a couple of strings I thought it might be worse than that. The nut is cut very well & doesn't need any work on, I lowered the bridge to my preferred height with the four allen key screws & the action is now perfect along the length of the fret board, no buzzing/rattles/dead notes. The body size is smaller than I thought, it's about the same size as my epiphone LP which I'm happy about. the fretboard is just a nice width for a 12 string, not too big & not too small. It's very well weighted with hardly any top heavy weight. I haven't had time to plug it in yet. I shall do a video & post that later. Some pics.
Edit: I've just tried it plugged in & the middle position is just JANGLE HEAVEN.
