My timing was about prefect when I ordered my Keith Black block back around 2008. The company went to heck and pricing went crazy. I think it took 6-7 months at most to get it and each was a special order made to spec.
Yeah, this is one of the new gen blocks, if you want to call them that. Took about a year to get, because at the time they were just getting ready to make them and I had to get in line.
