Just noticed this on the "Covid-19/Inventory update feed"
https://www.rondomusic.com/Covid.html
July 1, 2022 Just a heads up, this will likely be the last time we get the SX Bass guitars shown below. The logistics costs (both importing and shipping to west coast locations) have gotten completely out of control such that the importing and shipping cost now make up about 75% of the price of the instrument. If you have any interest in these, I suggest ordering now as this will likely be your last chance. As of now we do plan to continue to produce and import Agile, SX, and Hadean guitars but do expect supply to remain tight, especially with Agile for the rest of 2022. Please enjoy a happy and safe 4th of July!
Why would the logistics and shipping costs that account for 75% of the cost of SX Bass guitars and that now make them no longer profitable, not apply to the other models and make them unprofitable as well?
It does seem that no matter what you do basses take 2x as much space as a guitar. Its a game of inches. At least thats what she said.

Thanks for pointing this out (cryptic opt in confirmation email).
I removed the double opt in requirement so customers can just sign up from the home page and be done with it.
