Thanks for the nice posts guys! I really appreciate it! I should have exact pricing by the end of the week.

What I personally like about these new HII guitars is they are a slightly different tone and feel than the H60C. Think the meanest tele spank you ever heard and Mosrite combined and you get the idea.

Also, the alder body is a tad smaller which means less weight too.

The quality is the same as we have alway's offerred, and they have the die cast trem too unlike alot of the VII variety these days. Sexy finishes too. These are slightly limited and will most likely offer other colors next so if you see one you like, you may want to snatch it!

Sharp guitars. Nice to finally see a Ventures II style guitar with both the right type of pickups and a vibrato.

Thanks so much for the nice comments guys! I really appreciate it!

I guess I did good making more black with tortoise up than the other colors.

I made one up for myself in Red, Silver and Blue Sparkle ( Buck Owens). Remember we will do any custom finish.

Bob, those are awesome!! You had mentioned maybe a few other colors down the road, and you do Custom finishes....I was fantasizing a Hallmark II with.....Seafoam Green with Mother of Pearl P'guard. It just seems that would look kewl with the plank body :) . I've seen them on the Mo's with the German Carve, but it looks as though the Carve itself wrecks the Seafoam finish....just my 2.5 cents.... :roll: .
make the Mos' of it, choose the 'rite stuff.
