I got my Axcess Bengal Burst in early November and it plays and sounds GREAT!

I store the cases I may use more frequently in my music/guest room closet. The others are stored in a closet off our recreation room. When my hubby started working at home, due to covid restrictions, we move my guitars out of the home office/music room to a revamped guest bedroom with a Wilding Wall Bed. I wanted the guitars stored safer for when we had guest, so we ordered the guitar case from Access N Sight. I can go from Music room to guest room in about 5 minutes and not have a wasted room for 350 days a year.

I used to do the humid thing in the case, but it didn't address dryness and I wanted better access to my guitars. A change in our home environment made getting a dedicated case a better choice. I had one built by Access N Sight. It holds all my guitars in safety and proper humidity. I can monitor the temperature and humidity at a glance, see my guitars, and grab one anytime with ease. Pricey, but worth it if you can afford this option.

Thank you! Gibson Custom did right on this one. Very happy with the fit and finish. It took a bit longer than originally quoted, but worth it. I'm playing it through a Fender Tone Master Deluxe Reverb.

I'm really liking this guitar. The workmanship looks to be perfect. The neck joint is amazing and the contour very comfortable. It plays great. Well worth the 9 month wait. Martin uses the reinforced volute, and yes, they all should. Too many heads have bee broken off.

Whatever sings to you is what you should have.

It's finally here!! Took 9 months but well worth the wait. It is AWESOME. The tiger strips are like 3D and change with viewing angle. Very interesting like the guitar is alive. Mine is an M2M and I ordered it with the Cherry Back.

Thank you! It sure frees up a room that was seldom used. The Murphy bed with the side cabinets is very functional and great for storage. The guitar case protects the guitars on a daily basis and when guests are using the room. I can be ready for the kids in about 5 minutes.

That's why I like my case. I can see the guitars and easy to grab one out. I can also monitor the temp and humidity at a glance. It's amazing how well they stay in tune when stable.

You can Google "Access N Sight" for their website. They are in Montana and do outstanding work. They have several styles and options. The website is very complete. The work is primarily custom kinda M2M.

What I like about the case is I can add water or desiccant depending on humidity, it is lighted, has a temperature and humidity gage, and very well padded for upright support without hanging.

Okay, I figured out how to paste the pictures without a link.

I hate using hosting sights. I used to use them on other forums, but they went belly up and all the pictures I posted were gone from the forum. some were very important construction pictures. Very upsetting.

I have a really nice cabinet from Access N Sight that is environmentally stable for all my guitars. I would like to post a picture of it but don't seem to be able to post any with any clarity. How are those nice pictures I'm seeing posted? I'm limited to 6.9kb.

I have a Les Paul Axcess Bengal Burst on order since February. It's supposedly due soon as it "went to press" in August. Haven't had the chance to get one in my hands so I am getting mine on blind faith that the beauty, playability and tone won't be disappointing.

Sunrise in Wisconsin.

I'm really digging my Blondie Deluxe. Cranked it up to do Credence version of Midnight Special. WOW. Fender nailed the digital version.

They all got some of my money. All good places.

Thank you!! Yeah, that guy was just flogging the hell out of that poor guitar and amp. I try to keep the local shops busy. Dave's has been really good to me. Really gave me a good deal trading in my old amp. Their new store in Milwaukee, WI is really nice. Ben is an Outstanding Manager and the Repair Guys are the best. I asked for a bit of a tweak on the neck relief on my SG-12 and they were happy to accommodate me. Dave's in La Crosse, WI is their Parent store and is Guitar Heaven. The one in Madison, WI is also great. They all do On-Line shopping and have a great selection. I'm Glad I live close to the Milwaukee shop. The Custom Shop will be shipping my Les Paul there. They will ensure the setup is right for me.

I went with the Blonde Deluxe Reverb. Sounded great and comes with the cover and two button footswitch. Still exploring it. Some clown in the store was abusing an amp, guitar, and my ears while I was there, but was able to determine it would work for me. Can't wait to plug in my Les Paul Access Bengal Burst when the Custom Shop sends it. Should be pretty soon. They said it went to "press" on July 6th.

Thank you!!!

Thanks for the info, Kidblast! I guess I misunderstood the comments and further researching I discovered the different speakers. I am leaning on the Blonde Deluxe. Heading out today to give them a test using my SG12. I have a Les Paul Access Bengal Burst coming soon. Can't wait to give it a go on whatever I decide on.

They have the Super, Twin, and Deluxe versions. Were you guys serious about the color making a difference in sound? Or was that a joke? Can the balanced line out XLR be plugged into a PA like a Bose or others. I'm looking to play it at smaller venues with electric guitars, vocal mics, and mic-ing an acoustic guitar.

I'm heading to a good local shop to test out amps this week. I will be trying out '68 and '65 Fenders along side the new TMs. Leaning towards the TMDR if it sounds right to me. Might even pop for the Twin TMDR. We'll see.
