Mako Mak4 Preamp.....

[The_Mako_Maker]

...To make sure I get mine.... What do WE need to do to make sure we didn't get refunded? Call the CC?

I'll certainly let everyone know if there are refunds, you don't need to lift a finger on your end.

You can take $25 off the poweramp also when it comes out.

Hello Gents!


All orders are in a spreadsheet down to the second someone ordered, no change in the line up. Reordering will not affect that.

This is simply a credit card processing problem, not a production problem.

Thanks
Andrew

Who else thought this meant that MAKO would take care of the CC issue?

Cause they didn't.


Mine wasn't reordered...even though they had my CC info...my order time...and NO cancellation FROM MY END.




....waiting for nothing. fuck.

Hey, the customer is always right, so just email me what you want me to do to make you happy, and I'll do my best.

Emails went out on how to reorder etc, this is the first that I've heard I was not clear enough.

Thanks

Andrew

You should have gotten a refund notice from Google Check-out - didn't you? Didn't you notice you card wasn't re-charged for the purchase amount. I got the reorder e-mail from Andrew shortly after all that went down. It said to call and re-order, but you wouldn't lose your place in line - also, if you had changed your mind on buying then that was cool too. The inconvience of having to call up and re-order got you a $25 discount.

Basically I called him up with the new credit card (I changed cards) to ensure everything was cool. Got my Mak4 on Monday (would have been earlier, but I was traveling and Andrew timed the delivery for me so I'd have it on my first day back ).

I probably did...but since Google Checkout was used...I was required to use a Gmail account. Which I don't have. So I made one that day...and haven't been back since...since I was told "You don't need to lift a finger" when I asked if I needed to contact my CC co, or what I needed to do... I thought the reorder process was being taken care of by Mako...and I didn't need to lift a finger.

I gave them my CC info...which will also correspond to a physical address and a phone number, neither of which were used to try and figure out why I didn't bother to reorder.

It will probably be taken care of. I'm not concerned.

I don't think Andrew ever had your CC information - because that all went through Google checkout. They just gave him the $ and the order information. His follow-up e-mail explained that you needed to call in with CC info and that you'd get a $25 discount for your troubles. I never created a g-mail account - I always used my main e-mail - so not sure what happened with you there. I guess you never saw the subsequent e-mail.

I wouldn't worry. Andrew will straighten it out for you. He's one of the few manufacturers that I've dealt with who've met their committments without a bunch of BS to go along.

The pre-amp kicks ass, so the wait is definitely worth it.

I wouldn't use a junk email account if I could help it.

So what does this mean?

It meant you don't need to call your CC to see if you got refunded or not refunded.

I'm not sure there is much more I can do for you than what we discussed in email.

But let me know if there is.

Thanks,

Andrew

 

[~Abstract~]

Nope. Think we're done here.

Too bad it didn't work out for you. Maybe you could put that money toward a CCV instead.

From the context, it sounds like Andrew was saying that if he is issuing refunds, then you dont have to do anything, and he would let you know...

 

[The_Mako_Maker]

Abstract is right. I could be doing a better job.


When he first contacted me, I thought he was one of the guys who canceled on the intro price deal but now wanted to reorder at the original price and timeline. I was wrong. I also really did not apologize to him or offer any compensation.... I'd be mad in his position also.

I'm sorry Abstract. It was certainly nothing personal.


Good tone to you all!
Andrew

I have a Mesa 2:100 and two G-Flex cabs that might sond bitchin with that. Get rid of the Axe if I like the Mk4 better.

How do I go about preorderring? Thanks!

It sounds incredible. No reason why you can't own both - unless it's a $ thing. Nonetheless, I'm gonna see how close I can get the Axe to sound like the D/MP channels this weekend.

Okay, I'm totally a 'Johnny come lately" to Mako amps. I'm very impressed with what I have seen and heard so far. I have yet to hear one in person though. I would have bought a Mak4 preamp in a second had I known about the presale(or even Mako at all) for $850. Apparently I also missed out on the most recent $75 off coupon code thing too. Damn, No luck except bad luck. I'm trying to sell some stuff before the price goes up again. Can someone post some pictures of the back of the unit? and the footswitch? How cool would it be if you could play through two channels at once? Like blending the Makoplex and Dorado channels? Could that be a possible mod direct from Mako??? I know it's a pretty straight forward unit, but could someone also explain all off the outputs in detail? I read somewhere it had two outputs. Is that for stereo? I also read it had other 1/4 jacks. I need more info. Thanks

I'm not sure what the going rate is now. I kind of bought it on a whim during the pre-sale - just made it on the list in time because the price was too good to be true. I know several people who had the MP, D or Mak2 heads and loved them - so I figured it was worth a shot. It paid off. It's worth alot more than what I paid.

Hi,

The "mak4" $75 coupon is good through July 4th.

http://www.makoamporders.com works great.


I'll get some pics of the back. I'm surprised I don't have any.
It would be cool to play through 2 channels at once, but it cannot be done, sorry.

It has two 1/4" outputs. One goes to one side of your efx or poweramp, and one goes to the other side.

The Mako Footswitch jack is for the footswitch only.
The 4 extra 1/4 jacks are for external switching.... like if you have some crazy midi set up you can use relays to control the switching function of the Mak4.

Thanks,

Andrew

Nice! I've heard the Axe is fricken incredible!
