alpine Posted March 3, 2008 Share Posted March 3, 2008 Hi Admin, Do you have any information on when the Alex Lifeson ES-355 will ship? I have one on order. Many thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alpine Posted March 20, 2008 Author Share Posted March 20, 2008 Thanks, Admin. One other question. The webpage calls the guitar "Alex Lifeson ES-355 VOS"--is it true that it's VOS, or does it have a gloss finish? Thanks again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Custom Admin Posted March 20, 2008 Share Posted March 20, 2008 no, they are glossy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1meanmalibu Posted March 26, 2008 Share Posted March 26, 2008 I've read that the Alex Lifeson ES-355 VOS is a limited edition. Does anyone have any information that confirms the number of guitars that are being produced and how many will be available in Canada? It would be greatly appreciated. Thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Custom Admin Posted March 26, 2008 Share Posted March 26, 2008 it is not VOS, it is glossy...the run is 300, but i have no way of knowing how many will go to Canada. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1meanmalibu Posted March 26, 2008 Share Posted March 26, 2008 Doh! I knew that about the gloss finish yet I unintentionally wrote VOS for some reason anyway. My thanks for such a quick response. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
enduroexpert Posted March 31, 2008 Share Posted March 31, 2008 Hello, I've just seen the Lifeson signature for the first time. I'm new here and have probably missed a great deal of discussion on this signature guitar. Could anyone please tell me or give details as to where I might be able to pre-order the Alex Lifeson signature ES-355. Gear must get sold but I've waited years for this............ Thanks in advance for any help Johnny Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Custom Admin Posted April 6, 2008 Share Posted April 6, 2008 these should be shipping in the very near future...sorry for the holdup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
txag02 Posted April 9, 2008 Share Posted April 9, 2008 A salesperson at Guitar Center told me the delay is due to a problem with the white finish on the guitar. I haven't heard this from anyone else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crappy Posted April 10, 2008 Share Posted April 10, 2008 I would like to know the real reason for the holdup. I have heard just about everything from they are not building them yet, to the planets and moon are not aligned so we can't ship them yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
enduroexpert Posted April 10, 2008 Share Posted April 10, 2008 I've spoken to the Customer Service at Gibson twice now in the US and both times the guy can't tell me anything, he doesn't have a clue. I'm looking to come over from the UK to pick mine up as part of a short holiday, I've paid my deposit but can't book my flight......whats going on exactly, come on "someone", give us an answer, simple phone call to the Custom Shop will do to say....."Hey up lads, whats the game here, we got fella's waiting in line"..... I don't give a "Rats" if they have a problem with them just let us know...........Cheers, Johnny..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crappy Posted April 10, 2008 Share Posted April 10, 2008 I have a gut feeling it's going to be pushed back to sometime in May Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
enduroexpert Posted April 11, 2008 Share Posted April 11, 2008 May is fine, its just being left hung to guess which is a pain..........I really don't understand why we can't get a straight answer, surely the communication between factories and the office's isn't that bad.....???? ??????

Custom Admin Posted April 11, 2008 Share Posted April 11, 2008 there are some very minor behind the scenes details still being finalized. i expect all that to be wrapped up very soon, and then the guitars will ship. Unfortunately, i can't give you an exact date for shipping... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

turkeyT Posted April 11, 2008 Share Posted April 11, 2008 I'm checking this forum like 80 times a day for news. I hope you're gonna post the split second they are shipped! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rockpile69 Posted April 12, 2008 Share Posted April 12, 2008 Just like most people, I put my money down on the Alex back in February. Besides the fact that we still have no idea what is going on with the guitars, this is the part the really bites for me. I live in Toronto and apparently there was supposed to be a meet and greet with Alex for all the people who got one of these guitar's up here. Yeah, no guitar, no meet and greet! Thanks Gibson or whoever is responsible! If we are lucky maybe we'll get them by June from what I have heard. Crap! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ibis Posted April 12, 2008 Share Posted April 12, 2008 i have no way of knowing how many will go to Canada. Let's hope its quite a few, if your marketing dept. is on the ball! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rockpile69 Posted April 13, 2008 Share Posted April 13, 2008 Don't quote me, but from what I have been hearing 75 are supposed to be coming to Canada. Just in case you were wondering they are all sold along with the rest, totaling 300. Thank you Alex Lifeson and Rush! So, if rumor has it that they are all sold, what exactly is going on?!?!

thatgary Posted April 13, 2008 Share Posted April 13, 2008 Can we just get a ballpark figure of when the guitar might ship? Not looking for an exact date, but even a reply of something broad like "the summer" or "the fall" would help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
