Excellent news. I love mine already. The Level control is a marvel.

I'm looking forward to getting it. I think it will be a big change for me since I've only used Maz Jr's and my Carmen Ghia for gigs since 2003. I'll do a comparison between the three amps while using Doc's 12" speaker that comes in the Cure.

I haven't played the Cure, but if you have not heard the Z speaker yet, you're gonna love it, Russell!

I love the Z12 speaker in my ZLUX. Curious how it is going to sound in the Cure compared to the ZLUX.

I thought I was supposed to be #4 but somehow ended up at 8.... Still waitin... Hey Josh, I hope all is well! Just to clarify, when you were first asking us about putting a deposit down on the Cure we mentioned that if you did so you'd be 4th on the list. If you remember, you said you'd think about it and get back with us. By the time you told us it was a go, you had moved to 10th, as we had 6 people pay a deposit during that time. The good news is we have 9 down so far, so the very next one is yours. Woohoo! Anyway, I just wanted to clarify in case you were wondering what was up. It won't be long, now.

I really figured that's what happened, I meant no ill insinuation in that post! I've always heard patients is a virtue.... A stupid virtue, nonetheless a virtue! Thanks for the update, still patiently waiting... Every time I have dealt with Humbucker Music it has been a great experience this one has been no different! Thanks again!

I got it! Here are my first impressions.
1. It has very smooth overdrive. It is also very "clean" overdrive? 2. How does Doc make these 6V6 amps not sound flubby when they are cranked? 3. It took me about 5 mins to dial it in. V:3, T:2, M:12, B:10:30, MV 3. 4. The level control is sick! How does he do that? 5. This is my first amp with he tone by-pass. I was worried that the bass would be too much, but I was wrong. It sounds fantastic by-passed. 6. It doesn't quite have the gain of my Maz Jrs, but I never turned them all the way up. 7. I think the speaker sound really good. I can't wait for it to break in. 8. It can get very loud with the level all the way up. "Z watts". 9. Even though I've used EL84 amps since 2003, this 6V6 amp still has the "Z" feel.
I'm sure I'll have more later.
