Thanks for clarifying the tension dif of same sized strings. This has been killing me as I don't play that often.

The answer is on my t-shirt. It doesn't fit so I framed it.

I took a chance a few months ago on an Ebay purchase for an Ibanez RG for $100 in the picture it was dirty broken strings and you could see the dust on it so I knew it wasn't a guitar player selling it the same guitar online was going for 5-$800.
When I got it cleaned it up did an intonation new strings the thing was like it had never been played no neck or fret wear not even a scratch from a pick.
The last thing I needed was a new guitar but now I'd really like to pick up one of these.

Same here. But I'd have to find a left handed one, and buy the one I try. I looked inside the Calgary store on Google and couldn't see in any on the walls.

I don't think they keep their site up to date I've talked to Rob Chapman and he told me he can't find any other distributors in Canada and hes so busy with the UK and USA Canada's not a priority.
The store in Calgary told me their selling them as fast as they can get them.
I wish someone else in Canada would pick them up.

And yet he lists only one store in England (Guilford). I'm going to be near there sometime later this year, so I might have a look.
