Hey everyone!
After some changes to my order last week because of a stocking issue, I decided to go with an Apprentice LE V4 with windows and AV switch instead of the V5 I originally ordered. After talking with Erin and Brent a few times during the week, they changed my order on Friday and it was completed and I got my shipping tracking number last night! They truly are working really hard to get to everyone's order, as I got my shipping notice last night at 2AM! So for everyone waiting on your order to be completed, just know that they will get there! The excitement I had this morning waking up to that email is worth the wait, especially in these crazy times. The excitement is very real right now, should be here by Wednesday at the latest.
Any feedback on the Apprentice LE V4? I really like the look of the windows on it, and I love the AV switch upgrade. Any first hand feedback would be much appreciated!
I'll post some pics when I get it, it is my first saber and I'm very excited!!

I have the Dark Apprentice LE V4 and my daughter has the standard Apprentice V4. For the size and design of the saber it's a staple hilt to own. Perfectly simple for aggressive handling yet classy for what you pay. It's always a good idea to have a hilt like this in your collection, anything "fancier" just can't do what this hilt can do - and that's be good at almost everything you ask of it. It sounds a bit gushy but the Apprentice is just plain good.

I must admit, I also love the simplicity of the design of the Apprentice. I've always been a bit of a minimalist when it comes to aesthetics. Simple design, sleek look. The gold accents on the hilt in the LE look amazing too. Especially as my first saber I didn't want anything to big or with too much going on with the hilt. I want to get used to handling a simpler, smaller hilt before I get anything too heavy or long. I prefer the smaller more maneuverable hilt for sure. Glad to hear you enjoy it so much! Really looking forward to getting it next week!

I do hope you enjoy it. Be sure to share some pics if you'd like, I haven't seen an Apprentice LE in awhile and it'll be fresh to see a new one. Congrats on the purchase!

Hi Sempra, the apprentice is a very light saber which excels in heavy dueling plus if you upgraded the sound to V4 then you can mute the sound!! Congrats!!

I have the Dark Apprentice in AB, it was a freebie from Ultra sabers. I love this hilt and it happens to be my wife's favorite (because of the color) and she is not a Star Wars fan. It's one of my favorites out of the standard line up. I also have its big brother the Sentinel LE v4 in SY, love this hilt. I prefer these hilts over any of the v5's by far. You made a good choice , you will not be dissapointed. Hope this helps. MTFBWY!

Hey Sempra Diem. Congrats on your Apprentice V4. I've been hearing from quite a few members stating that they've heard from UltraSabers at 1 to 3 in the morning. They have been working 24/7 to get sabers out to members so it's good to hear that they got your situated

I was shocked when I got the completion email at 2AM. I am super impressed with the whole team that they're literally working around the clock to get everyone's orders out on time and keep their customers happy. Especially in these crazy and uncertain times its so nice to get that level of customer service. Another reason I'll be in this community for years to come!
