Very nice! I've actually also ordered one (surf green), arriving this week. So excited! A bit worried about the intonation though. How is it on yours?

So, the strings are quite cheap feeling (even though the site says they're from D'Addario), but I left them on for now because I want to use them to hold the bridge in tension for a couple of days and maybe get rid naturally of the buzzing problem I mentioned in the other comment.
However, after stretching them for a bit, the guitar is still in tune since yesterday evening when I last tuned it, so the tuners are working correctly as for now.
I will come back with more info if I notice a different behavior.

Edit: Also I think that Surf Green is a great color too, it would have been my 2nd choice

Sounds promising :) Hope you can get rid of the buzzing. Thanks for the reply. Enjoy your guitar!
