Yaron has Throbak Mick Taylor pickups. Best sounding guitar I've ever owned. One of the best I've played.

ASW Crossroads in the cab. I tried voicing this amp with Chinese greenbacks, but Crossroads sounded far more like my old half stack.

Cliff at Destroy All Guitars is handling all sales. We will start taking pre-orders soon. Amps should start shipping right after the first of the year. Price is $3,500.

Sounds awesome George.

How high was the volume of the amp? any attenuator used?

Worst thing is that buying from Europe... is VERY expensive due to shipping and taxes...

[JimiJames]

Alright George !

[VelvetGeorge]

Amp volume wasn't really high, you can almost hear the guitar strings at times during the clip. Higher when the boost is engaged, obviously. No attenuator.

Not sure what I could do to lessen the costs and logistics for International sales. I'll ask Cliff for suggestions.

Thank you George.

What really kill us in the EU is the import taxes... around 24% of the total amount (price+shipping price), that makes buying overseas too expensive.
as an example, a Metro 12 series costs 3000$ that are around 2300 euro, that is a good price for a boutique handmade amp, but if we buy from europe, we have to pay around 3200 euro for it, that is around 4000$...

I've heard that USA and the EU are dealing about a removing the import duties between USA and the EU, but meanwhile... it sucks.

Man.... I wish here in Brazil the taxes were only 24%.... We pay 60% over the total cost

The amp sounds amazinhg George!

[VelvetGeorge]

Import duties do indeed suck. I used to be able to get around some costs or at least lower them. But, every country has tightened up. Especially the EU. It's heard to get things through even when legit and properly declared in some cases.
The worst so far is paying full duty on an amp that is returned for repair.

Cliff may have ideas to help with this, I'll ask.

Sounds better than any Bogner, Soldano, Jose Cameron etc... In fact the 2210 (05) amps always sounded better to me than all those expensive high gain amps (not on the clean channel, though), but this is something else

I live in such a vortex. Just read about your new amp now George. What an awesome product!!! It freakin smokes!! What is the stomp box on top of the amp?
