who, what, where, and when for Colorado?

Fellow RTer Gsxrbusa is going to take delivery of it as soon as I can get it out there, perhaps right after it's done in CA. Sorry I can't be more specific yet, as I don't know how long it will be in CA... :doh:

If you'd like I can keep you posted once I know when Tom will be getting it.

Any chance that it will be coming to North Carolina on its tour? This clip still haunts me and makes me consider parting ways with some of my gear to put in an order....

+1 I am sure there are more than a few of us who would love to check this out!

I have one other gentleman interested in NC on the list, plus others in MS, AL, and FL. The amp will be in the SF area for another week, then LA for a while (not sure quite how long yet...), then AZ, CO, and a few places in TX. After all that I will probably ship it back home since it will have literally been played by ~50 different people, traveled thousands of miles, and thus may need some freshening up. :D

To give you a little insight into these demos, the way I typically schedule these stops is based on geographic location, interest level, amount of people that will get to play it (amp fest), whether you will record clips, etc. Basically, for those ready to purchase but just want to try first, they get priority.

After the amount of purchasing interest pouring in from the west coast, I plan to begin ordering parts for another run of amps very soon. This means we're about 6 weeks out from shipping the first amp, with an amp shipping every week from that point until all orders are fulfilled.

For those that are willing to purchase sight unseen, I offer a 7 day return period with a small restocking fee. If you'd like to customize the amp, there are no returns...


You sure it wont be sold before it ships back to you? :lol: :LOL:

Haha, the demo amp is not for sale, at least not yet. ;)

I've sold more amps, so it's been a successful trip so far. Ordering for the next run begins soon! :thumbsup:

Are you still checking out the Seattle Colossus next week sometime?
 
Haven't heard of your amp before. But a post mentioning your amp's good tones made me search. Is your amp coming to the NJ/NY area? Thanks,

Ivan

Thanks, I appreciate the kind words!

The demo amp will head over that direction at some point later this year. It will likely head through the interested clients in the south first, and it still needs to finish a lot of stops out west, so it will be a little while.

As with anyone, if you're a motivated buyer, then we can try and make arrangements for a demo sooner... Sales trump shipping logisitics. :thumbsup:
 
Here is 'rogthefrog' from HRI doing some really cool soloing on Lead 2 (channel 4) of the Colossus:




And, for the finale, got sustain? :rock:

One word...........EPIC!!!!!!!!! :rawk: :rawk: :rawk: :rawk:

That amp is so flippin' epic!
 
Kyle, any chance the Colossus will make it back to LA? I'm actually in a band now and am having issues finding the "right" amp to fit in. The "blinder" channel is stuck in my mind and so far these are the amps that have been "voted off"

Diezel Herbert
6550-Equipped Diezel VH4 (Going back with EL34s)
KT88-Equipped Splawn Nitro (Going back with EL34s)
Hughes & Kettner Trilogy
Marshall Vintage Modern

I'm currently rehearsing with a Jet City JCA100H--Help a brother out ;)

Hope all is going well and let me know if the amp is coming this way--I'll promise solo and band video!!

Cheers,

Race

You're in luck! The amp will be back in LA early next week. It's staying longer than planned in SF due to a couple of recording issues that kept more killer clips from coming to fruition. These new clips will be completed this week, so more to come! Ted (the organizer of these demos) already placed his order, and a couple others are pending, so a lot of mileage has come from it's trip to SF. :)

Quinn will be taking delivery of the Colossus (he's in Orange) and handling a few LA demos. I know him and a couple other RT members will be getting together for a mini amp fest. I'll email you with his contact info so you guys can coordinate accordingly. :thumbsup:
