So I get the coupon from MF for 15% off......and bam....it's time to order a 57 champ. I just placed my order, I'm certain my 57 AVRI Strat will sound amazing. 8) 8)

I'll keep you posted - with pictures as soon as I get it.

later,
Nic

Congrats!! You don't know how tempted I am to get one myself. I know you can find a vintage one for about half the money but......... I'd rather have one of the new CS!!

Yes, I know it's ridiculous but... I'm old and I want it. The problem is that the wife thinks like you. :( :wink:

I also have quite a list of things I want and it's constantly changing!!! :lol:

fhopins,
Congratulations on your new purchase. That's one for the old guys. Since my kids are all grown and on their own I have made a few purchases that have made me happy. So don't give your purchase a second thought. You deserve to treat yourself. Keep rockin.

Thanks so much...!!!!!

Actually with the discount it turned out to be an $849.00 dollar practice amp. AND I LOVE IT. 8) 8) 8)
I've been wanting to get one since they came out, it's perfect for me, at 50 years old, I have no second thoughts.

I'm not sure it can get any better than a 57 avri strat and a 57 champ. almost forgot about the cable.

later,
Nic

I really wanted one of these since I got a chance to plug into one in a store. Wow... They sound incredible. However, they're just too expensive for what it is. I ended up getting a very good condition 73 Champ for $350 instead. I'm happy.

That is cool, mine will be here on monday and I can't wait. I also just ordered a 62 avri strat in olympic white. Should be a really good combo.
I'll let you know how it is.
