Oh, trust me. I don't know many musicians with cool amps to profile. There is a pretty big community of them though, from what I can see. I'll know more when I get it... Though I've yet to get a tracking number. :cry:

Mars did too :? A salesman's worst nightmare...just when you think you're going to get a nice fat commission check in comes a return. At Mars it was 45 days (any wonder they only lasted a short while), once some guys came in and bought several thousand dollars worth of recording gear and fx. About a month later they came in and returned it all, though the policy was no questions asked my manager did ask why and they simply said "we finished our cd". (of course they got their refund)

So just a point from the perspective of the salesman, keep it in mind when returning things. You might be taking food off the table of a salesman...at GC you might cost him his job because if you do not make your draw more than once or twice they (at least around here) are known to can people ;)

Thanks sir! Maybe I'll break into your studio in the night and profile all your amps like some sonic guitar tone Vampire. :lol:
Sir? I was a non com, I even turned down West Point...dont sir me :hihi: BTW no need to break in, we could steam up a bunch of lobstas and clams and have a New England feast (unless you dont like seafood, than it's my chili :love: ) :)

Oh, trust me I've already thought of that. :hihi: ...but I probably wouldn't stoop to that considering it seems like there are already a lot of people with a lot better rooms and mics who have beat me to most of the good stuff. One thing I'd like to do though is track down a few amps from my past and see if I could profile them for old time's sake.

Actually, I'm pretty pissed at JRRshop right now as there was no indication at all that it wasn't in stock when I ordered it and I had to send an email to find out they didn't even have it. :? Bad form.

Sweetwater. But you probably wouldn't get the 15% off. Yeah, that is a drag though, bummed for you.

did they give you a time frame? Keep in mind that they are not one of the music retail giants and it's not easy for them to stock big ticket items. I'm only guessing but I suspect that JRR is ordering the amp for you, being the middleman, giving you a discount and probably not making a whole lot off of the deal. So go a little easy on them, I ordered my P-rails from them and it probably took a day or two longer than other places but I didn't care. I do agree with you that they should state this, but try and put yourself in their shoes...there is a lot of competition.

I have felt bad because I have bought things (like my Jet City 50 watt) from AMS and not from Eric. I like the three payments billed to my card over three months that AMS has plus when I want it fast I go to AMS because they are in Jersey. With standard shipping (free over 250 bux ) it ships the same day if I order it early enough and it's here the next day. (I use to drive a truck for a company across the street from UPS here and I use to go to the same town in Jersey so I know it's about a 5 hour trip). That is important to me because I live in an apartment complex that is huge, fedex will leave a package outside if no one is home so I want to be able to plan to be home. (thankfully most stuff comes UPS and the UPS drivers know me well and appreciate my xmas lotto ticket presents but fedex can't even figure out there is a back driveway here and they walk 150' uphill to my back door...poor guy did that with the iso cab :lol: )

I know how you feel because I do not have a lot of patience and when it comes to something like this I'm worse...even though I'm not very good at it I hope you can see their plight....at least like AMS is to me they are close to you. It sucks now but a month from now you'll forget all about it :)

Buy it from Sweetwater, then return it to them when you receive it from us. I'll give it to you for 20% off to make up for the disappointment.

(hibidy, you can have the 20% discount, too, just because I like you ;)).

Thanks! Kemper is a bit tough for us because we can't afford to stock more than half a dozen and they themselves only bring a limited amount into the country at a time. It just so happens that the stars almost aligned here, where they received a shipment and are sending them at nearly the same time as this order, it was unfortunately just not aligned enough.

btw, I think we're one of the Top 10 grossing independent stores in the US now. :)
