I am German, I think that's in our blood. Would we have Blitzkrieg today if Hitler hadn't been so impatient to overtake Poland?

I just checked, they're all at JFK now except for Bassvirtuoso's one.
That one is still in France as far as I can see.
I have no idea why.
Maybe it's because this is the only one where the address on the invoice is not the same as the shipping address?


Yeah I noticed that too, it says "Consolidation" though, so it might have been split up from the others and still being separated into the USA pile...

I would hope they wouldn't fuss about the invoice/billing address discrepancy, that wouldn't be any of their business I would think. They'd prefer to deliver to a business anyways.

At JFK already? That's awesome. I'm under 2 hrs from there. Maybe tomorrow then!

My Bach spent around 3 days in customs when it shipped EMS from Czech Republic.  Probably soon after that though.  I'm getting new controls and jack installed on mine.  Can't wait to see everybody's new basses!

Hey, you got mine!

The status of mine hasn't changed since yesterday, according to the DPD website. Did you have to sign for it or did they leave it on your doorstep?

Haha, well I had Rob deliver it to my workplace since the delivery companies won't leave things at my apt. complex's main office, so it came in today on a Fedex truck.

Funny isn't it that I was worried I'd be delayed and yet I'm the first to get it  ;)

You'll prob. get yours soon now too because my status never changed this morning, I thought it was still in France!

It has been snowing today and the temp has dropped accordingly, so I'll probably wait until afternoon to pop the box open. Then I have to serenade the ladies here at work otherwise they won't let me open it and play around! I'll try to snap some cell phone pics on my smartphone.

This is just in time for my gig tomorrow night, it might make it's debut with Uwe's BFG LP.

Just so you are aware, when my black one arrived it honestly took a couple of weeks for it to settle down. The difference between when I first got it and several weeks later was unbelievable. At first I didn't like it. NOW I've another coming!

Interesting, I'll definitely wait until she settles in before I make a judgement. I definitely want another one, so if this one is as good as I think it is, I'll try for the second batch of TH-2's that *might* just be Honeyburst....
