I actually got a refund of my deposit and pulled the plug on my Z-Wreck today I may revisit down the road at some point Keep us posted and post some clips of the 'Wreck when you get her though Keith Sorry you had to do that, but reality sometimes bites. I may be forced now to relearn all of the junk I have forgotten about ProTools while mine was down for a year waiting for them to make a Windows 7 driver. ACK!

I love PT 8 - it is worth getting back to it - Elastic Pitch is very cool.

When I did the deposit, he said it was about 18 days out, so that's what I'm basing it on, but you know how those things go. Could be sooner, could be later depending on a lot of variables.

I'm so glad you're going for the Wreck Steve. Just wouldn't be right you not having one. Wish I could help you out with a few bucks but I'm still struggling here. Our dollar is basically equal now as well. But the mrs has started a new business so things are scant. Can't wait to hear your take on the Wreck and hear some cool clips. Especially the clips...whoo hoo!

Keith Sorry to hear you've had a bad experience. Tell us what you end up with. Nah, the experience wasn't that bad, it's just a recurring thing I'll get a 'Wreck in the new year but I'll get it through a dealer like Humbucker, etc, and get it shipped to Canada. I ordered a Reinhardt Ampzilla for now. That'll be neat Steve, do you feel like you are in a fish bowl with this thread and everybody counting down with you ;D Keith

Pho....Faux....ffo mo to go!! Maybe you'll get some more exact info soon Steve Keith...Humbucker has been the best dealer I could ever ask for. I won't go into details, but lets just say they could have told me to take a hike 3 amps ago. They are super nice, ship the day they get the amp, and double box the already well protected Z amp heads. Sorry to hear about your delay, and glad you haven't given up.

Keith - if you ever want to get a Wreck in Canada, I would highly recommend you get in touch with the guys at Lauzon Music, here in Ottawa. They've been a Z dealer for 12 years now and have outstanding CS. I'm sure the guys at the Zshop can attest to that.
I know they have two coming already. Thinkin' that it may be easier to get it from a dealer with a product in Canada already?
Cheers Ben

Is the 20 mins the ride home or to the music store?
I used to get almost sick to my stomack when I knew there were waves and I was tring to get to the right beach for the conditions. I would guess the Z-Wreck would do the same.
