Title: I can't stand the wait!
Post by: ailean on March 25, 2009, 09:23:40 PM
I am, I admit, very bad at waiting for things. But this is killing me.

I ordered a Diezel VH4 and one of their new hemp cone cabs the weekend before last, the head is in stock, but the cab is coming from Germany, I was hoping to pick it up on Saturday, but it hasn't shipped yet (from Germany), and it now sounds like it's no sure thing I'll get it next week either! And to top it off... I'm off work next week, so my plans of spending the week playing with my new toy have turned into a week of waiting for it to turn up, if it does at all!

Is their a book? 'Dummies guide to waiting for things?'  I could really use it.  :(

I feel your pain. I waited 6 weeks to play with my Koch.  :|

Thought I would add: Bogner 4x12, ordered it in the middle of October, it arrived a month ago, and still waiting upon the US size screws to fix my speakers in...

Good website Will :)

Yeah I know it's not really long. I was just really up for getting it Saturday, and now I might not get it next week. I guess as much as anything I'm not good at shifting goal posts, well not good when they get further away :)

Yep.

Wait for legra, wait for spare funds that exceed the cost of a VH4 (or whatever else I do or dont get)...all coming together late may to early june. Time annoys me rather frequently. Its so unreasonably inflexible.

And, no, we never get tired of Johnnys Koch!

Couldn't you have taken delivery of the VH4 separately (i.e. now) & let the cab follow when it's ready?

I'm thinking of getting the Supernova. 5 channels with midi. What an extension to my current Koch!  :D

You waited a lot longer to play with your Lion.

But that doesn't have the comedy value.  :wink:

... unless it would be stretching the bounds of comedic taste to refer to a lion as a pussy...

Yes but midi guitar, multi effects, midi looper, midi Koch its all mind blowing this high tech stuff! If all my plans come together then I could be playing lots of different musical styles so this set up is ideal.
Mark get a midi system in your new custom, you know it makes sense!  :D

Check the spec of the new Koch on the block and marvel at its endless possibiltys, man.  8)

Sorry for the hijack there ailean. I hope you get you new amp soon, waiting for something so nice as that is torture.

No worries, I was only spouting off in any case.

And it's always a pleasure to hear about your Koch.

Yuck.

I got an email today to say that my cab hasn't shipped yet, and the factory have all gone to a trade show in Frankfurt, so it looks like I'll be waiting till the end of April as well!

Wow - that Koch Supernova looks good

I will stick with the Egnater /Randall modular thing though

I know what you mean about waiting though
I was so eager to get my Egnater from the USA - took ages but was worth it in the end though

Yes your Egnater is a great sounding pre-amp.
