Have all the Kit Guitars been sold? I was also wondering if anyone here has one and what kind of details can you give on how your Kit plays, sounds, etc. Thanks.

David:

There is still a Kit guitar listed in the showroom:

The kit guitars are still available. We have one made and another one almost finished.
I doubt anyone has 'em, but I've played the one that's done. Very fast, sweet sounding (bright, like pretty much all Alembic guitars), fairly similar to a Skylark.

Hey Bill and Val. I must have overlooked the Kit in the showroom. I looked through today and for some reason I did not see it and thought it was gone. I think these would really be special instruments to have; of course, as are all Alembics. I like the history on them.

It's interesting to see that THG was able to cut hat/Raytheon knobs!!! They're my favorite knobs of all time.

The original brass pickguard sounds really cool even if it would only look shiny for a little while.
