SAGA? You may be thinking "What the hell happened to the SAGA?" Well, here's the answer. We are not officially doing the SAGA this year, mostly due to time restraints. We may bring it back in one form or another, though, so look out for that. That being said, here's a little SAGA surprise! Starting next Friday April 6th, a surprise custom Gwin from almost every Super Awesome Gwin Artist of 2006 will be up for auction on eBay! The auctions will end the following Friday April 13th (oooh...Friday the 13th!). So on Friday April 6th, visit gwinarmy.com to check out these fine pieces and grab one or some for yourself!
