Yes it is. 
It's not those who write the laws that have the greatest impact on society.  It's those who write the songs.

Hearsay availability update:

Somebody over at TB posted yesterday that Sweetwater indicated the release date to be September vs July.

Just passing the buck.

 Spoke with my Rep yesterday 6/20 he said still Mid July. He also said there is no Cherry finish, so mine is Alpine White.

Any news on neck width on the Embassy ?
I did see somewhere that people thought they will be setneck.

American Musical still shows the Embassy as expected July 18th and still shows all three finishes.

They show a pic of the back, no neck screws visible. Those pics could be mockups but I'd guess set neck.

Just a head's up. A guy over at TB said Sweetwater called him yesterday and said his Embassy was on the truck.

All of you that ordered should be getting your goodies soon!

I am starting to think I should sell my Victory to fund one of these birds.  Ain't no other way I'm getting one. ... I'd probably miss the Victory tho.
