Wow the Guardian

[Rashimotosan]

I ended up buying a Guardian for a ridiculously low price of $250 off someone I'm pretty sure was not familiar with UltraSabers. The hilt is Emerald with obsidian V4 sound. It has some scuffs I'm pretty sure I can get out. But had it not been for the price due to this person just wanting to get rid of it quick, I probably wouldn't have bought it. I wasn't sure how attractive the hilt was so it wasn't on my radar. Wow I was wrong. So happy to have it. It is gorgeous. Pics and vids didn't do it justice.Can someone tell me how to embed pics? I want to show this baby off.

Looking forward to seeing that awesome saber score.  Is the Guardian as beastie long as they say... for us smaller handed ladies.

Thanks Dauntless!

I do have small hands and the hilt is definitely heavy but I have been able to spin it a little with one hand so it's doable. It will take some getting used to but this might be mostly due to the fact that I'm new to spinning still and am still learning. I do have rather heavy hilts so far  the Graflex and the Manticore. I got an Aeon recently in an MB I've been practicing my spinning with. I've also saved up for the Spectre which I heard is also heavy but am waiting for a raffle to purchase and try my luck again. But I l Iove them all so far so I'll just have to work on my hand strength. I'm a bit afraid to handle my Guardian too much right now. I had a little to drink and don't want to drop it lol but I will do a video review and for now I can post photos.

A dent will just add character! 

Until I got my hands on a Guardian, I didn't really have on my radar either.  But that grip section just feels sooo right.  That is a truly great price to get one with an Emerald board and V4 sound!!!  I am both happy for you and jealous.  What color settings are you going to set that bad boy up in?  I have mine configured with AB main and SRD FOC on my wishlist.

A great saber at an awesome price! Good find! How you get some pictures up soon.

Can't wait to see you post it up, Rash!  I want to add the Guardian to my arsenal next to my Consular and can't wait to see yours.

My wife bought my Guardian for me on our last anniversary. It was my first US hilt with sound. The pommel is just so iconic to me. Definitely one of the showpieces if any collection!

You always remember your first saber and your first sound saber.  I know that I do

Love love love my Guardian. Give it time. You will too. People keep saying that the Spectre is heavy,  but I think it feels about the same, if not slightly lighter than your Guardian.  So, you should absolutely get one. Anyway, congratulations on a great new blade and we can't wait to see the pictures.

Hey guys, sorry I got tired and went to bed! It was pretty late when I put up that post. Here's the photos. I hope this works. Right now the saber is set to what looks like DVA with Bane's Heart Pink FOC. It's actually pretty sweet but I was thinking of changing it to CG or FO. I haven't fully decided yet. I have a red Aeon v2, a Graflex that pulsates GB to SY (I caught the photo when it went yellow to give it variance), and a Manticore in GB, so I want to make the Guardian something a little different and non-canon since I already have 2 blue sabers. Also it had a recharge port! I don't have any with one yet. It was a really sweet score. Can't believe how lucky I got.

   that blue you have it set to looks AMAZING!!!

True but I want them to be MY dents so it can have MY character   

The scuffs are noticeable but not bothersome to me so I'm not in a rush to buffer. I also threw in a photo of me holding it so you can see how relatively large it is for someone with small hands. I twirled it around a bit this morning again and it actually isn't that bad. It is heftier than my other hilts but totally manageable with one hand I think.

It's gorgeous, Rash!  Love your collection so far as well and I think you should keep your current set up on your Guardian, I think it looks great as is.  Can you post pictures of Bane's Heart FoC when you get a chance?

Sure! Yeah I DO like that color, I'm not gonna lie lol. That's why I'm not sure if I even want to change it. I'm about to head out to work now but I'll throw up some more pics of the FOC later this afternoon.

I look forward to seeing it and take your time. I think that blue fused with Bane's Heart FOC will look pretty wicked. Just want to throw it out there before you post pictures later this afternoon
