I have a new Williams D10 coming soon and I've gotten into the D13 12 string tuning so I'm putting this absolutely beautiful looking and sounding instrument up for sale, as I'm making room for the new one. Happy to send more pictures to interested buyers. $4k shipped Conus. Firm.

Quite the beauty! If I didn't already have my pre-RP D12 Mullen, I'd love this one, especially that color, my fave. Good luck with the sale!

I'm tempted, Bill, but you know my situation. My new D13th is awaiting a case so it can be shipped.
I daren't spring for another guitar at this time (or dare I?
 ))

Why can’t they just bubble wrap, double box, ship it and send the case when it comes in?
I’m probably looking at the same issue in the (sort of) near future. I ordered a single 12 in April and was told a year wait. You’ve gone longer than that. I’d be going insane.

Not to derail Bill's thread, but I went with Williams for what I perceive to be their quality and for the 10-12 month wait quoted. My order was place mid-June, 22 so I'm way out now.
Bill told me that they're considering building their own cases. I can understand their frustration: guitars finished, but they can't get paid until they're ready to go.
As for the bubble-wrap idea, I agree, but shipping these days is expensive. It could add $150-200 to the price.
Back to Bill's D12: I very nearly bought this before Bill nailed it "while I was waiting" for my SD12. I'd want more C6 KLs, though.
This Williams is truly a thing of beauty! Bill's pictures do it justice, but so did Damir's.
My guitar will be this colour but with a different inlay.

We are in the same boat Roger. I already showed you a picture of my finished William D10 just waiting for a case to send it.
the D12 is gorgeous and plays beautifully. I can guarantee one thing: you'll be able to play this one by the end of the week.
My new D10 with Paul Franklin's copedence: just waiting on the case:

Bill:
It occurred to me to wonder if that was MY guitar just behind your new red D10 (covered with a cloth); it's not, though - not enough pedals.
I wish he's send ME a picture, at least!
