    I check their site every morning since they drop new guitars around 2am eastern time. I never saw this one!

      Yea, it was quick, and it was around 5a eastern time. Gone in about half an hour or so. If you watch their instagram, they show you what’s coming and say “next week!” basically giving you heads up. Thanks for watching! 😃👍🏻

    Man, this is hard to resist. I had a Dean ML many years ago, and I found that body shape very comfortable and balanced. Good thing I didn't see the green one, or that would have been ordered... 🤪

      Yea, I kinda wished I had waited 😜 That green 🤩 And they’ve improved the trem, this time it says Floyd Rose and looks more stout, and they added a hotrail pickup at the bridge. Thanks for watching! 😃👍🏻

    Honestly looks pretty good in an era where Dean doesn't seem to be pushing guitars into Canada. Looks like the Firefly site only lists the explorer shape under FFVX, unfortunate.

    • @VaporTrailChannel
      @VaporTrailChannel  4 месяца назад

      That’s only because it’s not in stock. They update during the drops, and the more desired ones go pretty fast. This drop was at 5 or 6a eastern time I think. On a Saturday. The site doesn’t ship to Canada, but I think they may have an eBay store in CA. If you join the groups on Facebook, you’ll find lots of info there. Thanks for watching! 😃👍🏻

    when do you think they’d restock this?

    • @VaporTrailChannel
      @VaporTrailChannel  3 месяца назад +1

      Hard to say. I think this was the first time they made this model, and sometimes it takes 3-6 months before they make another batch, sometimes one month, and sometimes it’s a one time thing. This sold so fast that I would imagine they will make them again. It you follow them on instagram and join that facebook group, you’ll know at least a week in advance that there’s a drop coming, and they’ll show you what will be in the drop. But they always add more than what they show. They don’t tell you exactly when it’ll happen, so once you know it’s coming, it’s time to start refreshing over and over till it happens 😂 They have a drop happening before the end of this month, but I didn’t see this one in what they showed. Hope that helps! Thanks for watching! 😃👍🏻

      @VaporTrailChannel  18 дней назад

      That is true. And the Washburn went after the ML. After I did this video, I did look into that, and you're correct. It is more on the Washburn side than the ML. All good, I really dig it! Thank you for watching.

      Not really. All Kiesel customs come with them, even with a FR. They “might” help to keep them in tune, but they’re really about ease and speed of re-stringing the guitar. Appreciate you watching!
