Very much so, but as you can see it's not going all that well at the moment.

I have two things on ebay, Boss DD-20 Giga Delay on ?83 and a Bias Rite Amp Bias Probe at ?33, hopefully they'll both bump up by around ?20 each and I'll have ?150 towards the beast. I've heard lots of clips and heard enough about the things I wasn't sure of (channel switching speed/popping not present) for me to know I want one badly.

very few vendors are carrying them as of yet over here, but i'm keeping a watchful eye. my problem is i can't be arsed to ditch my other gear in order to score one. i'm basically going to have to donate body fluids or something to start saving since we still have another $2k - 3k left of recording/mixing/mastering to do on the record. once that's done, though, i'm set on scoring a combo. . . someday. . . even though they are $2150 on samash.com right now. :cry:

Yeah, yuo guys get dicked over the price over there. it's very cheap here.

We get fucked on the US Amp manufacturers; Fender, Peavey, Mesas etc.

They're rare over here too, people basically preordered the first batch so they're gone. Next lot ship in March/April - I should have saved at least half by then.
