Just "won" a M12 head on ebay! It's the blackout model from Humbucker. The lister said it is "brand new." I guess we'll see... I was really surprised I got it. I waited until the last couple of seconds and got it for the original suggested bid. If it is in the condition he says, it should be a great deal. I've been wanting one of these for a while. My playing situation has changed pretty dramatically due to work and school, and I really don't have an amp that is conducive to home playing (even w/ my Airbrakes... ). I'm pretty excited. Unfortunately, I'll probably need to sell something to cover the cost as I really didn't expect to win it at the original bid price (I was kind of hoping I wouldn't have...). Check the BS&T in the upcoming days for a deal on a higher wattage amp or two... Gotta love those Zs w/ the EF86 front end!

Trust me. I don't want to get rid of anything. But if I don't find a way to make the cost of the M12 disappear off the credit card, I'll be living in a luxury cardboard box under one of our many bridges due to my wife's thoughts on excessive guitar gear. I want to play this thing first before I make any rash decisions. I'm stoked! Can't wait to get it. However, there's not even a tracking number generated yet.

Seller is supposed to ship it out today! He said he included a couple of extra "goodies" since he is running a little slow on the shipping. I should get a tracking number today. " Goodies?" Now I'm kinda nervous...

Congrats! Funny thing is I had bid on the head but retracted it as soon as I bought my M12 locally. I normally never retract a bid, but there were still a few days left.

Congrats! Funny thing is I had bid on the head but retracted it as soon as I bought my M12 locally. I normally never retract a bid, but there were still a few days left. I was wondering about that... There was one bid on it while I was watching it, and then, the bid disappeared. The seller seemed like he was really dragging his heels on shipping. But I finally have an estimated delivery date! Thursday should be the day! Of course, I have to be up at Penn State University that day for a conference...

Got the head yesterday! Only had about fifteen minutes w/ it as I was stuck up at State College all day for a conference. I ran it into a Z 1X12 Convertible w/ a G12-65. I used my newish 335. This thing sounds amazing! Spectacular cleans and some bitchin' drive at the 3-3-3 setting. I'm diggin' it big time. I was hoping to spend some time w/ it tonight, but I have to go to our high school football game. Tomorrow is probably out, too, as my son is playing tenor set w/ the marching band for Fort Ligonier Days Parade.
I hate it when I get something cool and can't get any time to spend w/ it!
