Looks cool! Will it take three years to get?

DeTemple guitars are built and play well and sound very good (I love the Sweet Spot PUs), but I would have chosen a different paint scheme to introduce the Stellacasta. Just my opinion.

I have no doubts concerning the quality of the instrument, but also do not personally like the paint scheme they chose for the example.

Never tried a Detemple, very curious to test one out someday. It's a bummer that so many of them are so plain and ugly including this one. I wonder if there is still a long wait time to get one?
