JangleBells '05

Post by janglebox »

We are very grateful for the flood of JangleBox orders we've received since late October, but this past week they've accelerated to the point that —although not impossible— it now appears pretty doubtful we’ll be able to assemble enough JB’s in the next 12 days for you to receive yours by Christmas day. I thought we had sufficient inventory to meet a Christmas rush, but sales are more than double last year at this time.

I will say that some of you lucky guys here have very generous wives and girlfriends...

Steve,

Even though I don't have one (yet), by all accounts they are obviously worth waiting for.

They sure are! I put my "new" 360/6 through it and into the AC-30 the other night - sensational! Gonna try it with the JC-120 today.

Welcome SS, now what's your real name? No one here needs to hide, or do we? Image

Hmmm. I once tried to join as "325 guy" or some such name.

I was roundly refused.

Now, this? (Snif).

A couple of my Kiwi friends on the ice were identified by their Kiwi boss as malcontented troublemakers...he referred to them in front of the rest of the crew as "sh*t stirrers".

Wonder if Peter would let me change my Forum screen name to that...?

Steve,

Jim: Thank you for the order. Unfortunately, production has actually fallen a little further behind. Last week (including Christmas Day!) and so far this week, we've been slammed with orders, and we're losing some production days because of holiday vacations. ETA is now closer to 3 weeks. If units are completed sooner, we'll of course ship them right away.

I was surprised ShapeShifter's unit took 7 weeks, because I believe he bought his through Rics R Us in the UK, and I thought we had Mike Smith pretty well stocked a few weeks ago. Not sure about that one.

Thought I'd best say hello as I've managed to shift myself back to Earth.
Absolutely loving my little black box & a pleasure to be here.

Welcome to the Forum, Billy...I fully expected you to coalesce out of the ether at some point...

Welcome back, Billy. I love my JB also. What amp are you using it with?

G'day, Dane! Bit cold out your way?

Thanks, very much appreciated.
I'd have replied sooner but my fingers spectacularly morphed into sausages & it takes a little time for the swelling to go down.

I've yet to get the JB to the rehearsal room.
I've a 330 which doesn't do exactly what it says on the tin, hence the magic box.
The primary use for the JB was for recording with the 330.
My main guitar is actually a Gibson 335 which I use in conjunction with a Marshall JCM800, so it should be interesting when I finally get to put the box through it's paces.
