I did make a note with the strap order saying they could just throw it in the case, not really thinking it would be addressed. We shall see. Everyone should be excited, they're starting to migrate! As a bonus, the weather in Michigan is expected to be in the 50's Wednesday! I have my infrared surface thermometer handy just in case. :cheers

Folks, please have cameras ready and take a moment to think about your forum brethren who must live this excitement vicariously through you.
Or, if you prefer; "pics or it didn't happen!"

I'm anxiously awaiting word from the rest of the FVII gang that theirs are shipping, as well. When I looked a little closer to the FedEx email I received, it notes that shipping info was relayed to them last Friday afternoon at 1:38, and the guitar was picked up yesterday (Monday) afternoon at 3:18. The "kid at Christmas" feeling is well underway.

Updated delivery is now Friday 2/20. Glad I didn't fill the party balloons or order the cake yet! :wacko:

For those of us getting mahogany 000's, we've not known which one's were destined to be ours. I found my serial number on the FedEx shipper. So now my mystery is, at least, partially revealed. The catch is mine is the only one that didn't get a picture posted with finish applied. So now the wondering is left to you three. 
Edit: Wouldn't you know, about 5 seconds after posting I got an email from Larrivee with the serial number included in the invoice. All that sleuthing for naught!

I got my tracking number!!!! FedEx doesn't have the box yet, so no ETA yet, maybe by tomorrow. This guitar is going clear across the country ground direct, so I am expecting several days until I have it in my hands.

I'm guessing yours is 144202?

Received my notice, in Chino California, headed for Magnolia,Tx. at this point it says should arrive on the 19th, (somehow doubt that) we'll see. :thumb

I got my tracking number but FedEx has not picked it up yet!   :nanadance   :nana_guitar 
:blush:

Now that I know my serial number from the invoice, it's so fun to look at the pics again and see the parts of my own guitar coming together!

I went back to see my number but so far, no actual delivery date.  Good to get the shipping notice though.

It would have been nice to have heard a good recording of each of the 00's & 000's Mahogany vs Black Walnut.

I'm also wondering what Jean thought of this Forum VII run?

My delivery date just moved up to Thursday now per FedEx.
Edit: Oops...it's the strap that's coming Thursday. Breathe in, breathe out...

Upon checking the Fed Ex tracking, I see my guitar sat almost 24hrs in its Chino, California hub and now states it should arrive on the 20th.  :crying:

I'm not holding my breath.

FedEx let mine sit over the weekend at the factory, despite receiving the info early Friday afternoon, hence the Wednesday delivery notice. Now it's Friday, like most. Does there seems to be a rare and electrified anticipation in the air?
